40 min prep
0 min cook
Serves 8
Ingredients
- 2 Medium Fresh hot house cucumbers
- 1/4 Medium Fresh red onion, (about 1/2 cup) sliced very thinly
- 5 Small Fresh red radishes, scrubbed and sliced very thinly
- 1/2 cup Rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp Avocado oil, (or other neutral flavored oil)
- 1 tbsp Fresh lime, juice
- 1/2 tsp Crushed red pepper, (more or less, according to taste)
- 2 tsp Honey
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt, (or to taste)
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Instructions
- Wash and partially peel cucumber (leave thin stripes of peel on for color and texture). Slice cucumber into thin slices using a food processor with the slicing blade or by hand. Place in a medium sized bowl.
- Add sliced onion and radishes to cucumbers.
- In a small bowl whisk together rice vinegar, lime juice, red pepper flakes and honey.
- Pour rice vinegar mixture over vegetables and chill for 15 to 20 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro just before serving
- Chef's Note: For a crisp, light "pickled" flavor serve after chilling briefly. For a stronger spicy, pickled flavor serve the next day after cucumbers have softened and radishes have turned slightly pink.
