Ingredients

1 tablespoon Chinkiang vinegar 1 teaspoon Sichuan chili oil 1 teaspoon sesame oil 1 teaspoon turbinado sugar 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt 3 Persian or Kirby cucumbers or 1 English cucumber 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds 2 tablespoons roasted unsalted peanuts, crushed 2 tablespoons cilantro leaves

Instructions

Whisk together the vinegar, chili oil, sesame oil, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set the dressing aside. Halve the cucumbers lengthwise. (If using English cucumbers, remove the seeds with a small spoon and discard.) Set them cut-side down on a cutting board and lightly smash them: Give them a couple angry thwaps with the side of a cleaver (or a large chef’s knife) until the cucumbers crack in a few places. (For less drama, just press down on them with the side of the knife.) Cut the abused cucumbers crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick half-moons. Toss the cucumbers in the dressing, portion them out onto plates, and top each serving with sesame seeds, peanuts, and cilantro.
