Preparation Steps

  1. Prepare the Cucumber

    Slice the cucumber and set aside. If preferred, you can peel it.

    Slicing should be thin for better absorption of flavors.
  2. Make the Dressing

    In a bowl, combine the rice vinegar, lime juice, and sweetener. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Stir well to ensure the sweetener dissolves completely.
  3. Combine Ingredients

    Add the sliced cucumber to the dressing and toss gently.

    Let it sit for a few minutes for the flavors to meld.
  4. Serve

    Serve the salad with sesame seeds sprinkled on top.

    Best served chilled.
