      The TikTok trend is roughly as follows:

      • smash a cucumber and cut in chunks
      • add salt, mix and put in the fridge for a while to remove some water from the cucumber
      • rince
      • make a sauce with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh ginger
      • add some topping, like green onions, sesame seed, wakame seeweed, pepper flakes, cilantro, crushed peanuts or whatever you like

          In Japan, we just smack them with something like a rolling pin, butt of a knife, etc.

          Maybe smash isn’t the right word (I’m not a native English speaker).

          You put the cucumber on a cutting board, lay a large knife flat on it and strike the flat of the blade with the underside of your fist.

      Cut cucumber in thin slices and put in a bowl. Mix the following: 2 tablespoons of water 2 tablespoons of vinegar (preferably apple cider) 1 tablespoon of sugar 0.5 teaspoon of salt 0.25 teaspoon of pepper

      Pour it over the cucumber slices and leave it alone for 10-15 minutes.
