Cucumber Sunomono Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 10)

This is really more like a pickled side dish, but unfortunately, I tried to use it as the main vegetable. Not a good idea, unless you want a stomachache from all the vinegar, :(

Like several others ... I believe it is sunomono ... the spelling doesn't matter .. this is a really good recipe for fans of Sushi Bars. Typically this includes pieces of fish but alone it's really good. I added the carrots, sesame seeds and oil. It was really good. Will make this again ... but will leave the sliced cucumbers a tad thicker. Thank you!!

Very good. A nice side dish for a spicy stir fry or curry entree.

This is so fast and easy. Read the reviews first and used less salt...I used sea salt. Also used the fresh ginger that comes in tubes that you can freeze. I also used 1 large English cucumber as suggested. These are actually better than the cucumbers that are served at PF Chang's!!Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Darn..I didn't read the reviews before I tried this recipe. It was too salty for me...and I like salt. I would use 1/2 the salt next time. I will make this again because we have a ton of cucumbers in our garden, but just with less salt.

This was an interesting change from the typical cucumber salads. I don't like it too sweet, so I cut down on the sugar. I didn't have fresh ginger, so I used dried/ground ginger instead.

Unless I used the wrong measuring spoon, this was too salty. BUT it was just what I was looking for. Used a collossally huge cucumber from the farmer's market so I doubled the recipe. This morning they are swimming so I didn't need to. Used powdered ginger. Tastes good but turned everything a funny light brown. Due to the freshness of the cucumber, it's still pretty crunchy the next day. Next time: 1/2 the salt, fresh ginger, freshest cucember possible. Definately a keeper!

I added toasted sesame seeds only and found it delicious ! This will fold into some "standard" salads to make. Thank you !

For the most part, yummy, but next time I will do half the salt, a bit too salty, and a few bites had way too much salt taste. Giving it four only for this reason. Will make again for sure, thanks for the recipe!
