Try adding some ground red chilli flakes to the cucumber salad. That's how they do it in Korea! Can really spice it up, or go mild.

Thanks for writing this.

Both of them are so refreshing and healthy. I would love for you to send these 2 salads to my ONE DISH MEAL- Salad event that I am hosting. Do check the rules in my site. Thank you and will look forward to a recipe from you.

Perfectly cool and crisp! I love those veggie banchan served in Korean restaurants, so healthy and abundant.

jaden:
Oh yes! It's been a while since CSC and I have done something from your upcoming cookbook. Broccoli pickle sounds good and refreshing!

kimho:
I did dress the cucumbers and sprouts in advance. Mine didn't turn yellow, although they turned a little brown because of the soy sauce. That's why I try to keep the spy sauce to a minimum and use salt for seasoning. The color doesn't really affect the taste, though.

kalyn:
Yeah, _Best Recipes_ and _How to Cook Everything_ are good go-to cookbooks.

I love that cookbook! Never tasted this type of sprouts, but I can tell I will like both these dishes! (And adding cilantro is always good.)

It's all about making things your own. I find it hard to cook bean sprouts right. I usually end up with mush. Tasty mush, but mush nonetheless.

Yay - Korean side dishes. Sounds very authentic to us! Thanks for coming to our site.

yum! i love kongnamul, especially in bibimbap...sigh.

also, if you like kimchi you should try out oi kimchi. it isn't too dissimilar from your cucumber salad. i made some a few weeks ago and it was fantastic.

Like your addition of cilantro into the salads. It shd taste quite different from the usual but differently good!

Hi JS/TS,

Ah, the cucumber remembers of the pickled cucumbers my mom does, only she juliennes them rather than slice them. Got a question regarding the cucumbers here: do you put the dressing right before serving or put it in advance? When I asked my mom, she will leave it to "marinate" for 30 minutes; however, when I try that, the cucumber starts to turn yellow. If I don't marinate it long enough, it does not have the same kick.

Thanks!

I find rice vinegar and sugar is a deadly combination when it comes to making light side dishes. I'm a die-hard fan of the cucumber, and you can try it with lo bok as well. It's great for the hot summer months!

hello --
thanks so much for stopping by my page. your page is chalk full of great but UNIQUE recipes, very inspiring.

personally, i am not a fan of bean sprouts (water chestnuts are worse tho).

your korean apps look delish tho. i've been wanting to make the cold mashed potatoe salad for awhile. this just might prompt me to do so!

You make it all sound sooooo good and so are the photos. I'll definitely have to find some Korean sprouts ASAP!
