Dinner: Spicy cucumber side dish (Oi-muchim: 오이무침)

Caption's available! http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/oi-muchim This recipe is also in my cookbook, Real Korean Cooking: http://www.maangchi.com/real I’m going to share a super simple recipe with you today that’s one of my all time favorites. It’s a spicy Korean cucumber side dish called oi-muchim. If you have a nice seedless English cucumber, you can make this delicious banchan in just a few minutes. During my round the world Gapshida trip to meet my readers in 2011, I made this dish almost everywhere I went. Everybody loved it. Who wouldn’t like cold, fresh, crispy, seasoned cucumber? Each bite is succulent and wonderful! Oi means “cucumber” in English, and muchim means “mixed” or “seasoned,” so many people simply call this dish “seasoned cucumber”. Many Koreans have their own version of it, so you’ll find many variations from family to family. This one is mine, and I’ve been using it for a long time. It’s also one of the dishes in my cookbook. A major tip for this recipe is to make it and mix it just before serving, which will keep it crisp and fresh and prevent it from getting watery. It’s perfectly for a summertime BBQ – refreshing and just spicy enough to give you a little kick! Enjoy the recipe! Let me know if you make it! Ingredients (Serves 4) 1 English cucumber (or 2 to 3 kirby cucumbers), washed 1/4 cup thinly sliced onion 1 green onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons soy sauce 2 teaspoons hot pepper flakes 2 teaspoons sesame oil 2 teaspoons sesame seeds 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
