Cucumber Edamame Salad with Ginger-Soy Vinaigrette
INGREDIENTS
SALAD:
- 4 English cucumbers, spiralized or very thinly sliced
- 2 cups frozen shelled edamame, thawed
- 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded, deviened and chopped
VINAIGRETTE:
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup seasoned rice vinegar
- 3 Tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 1-1/2 Tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons ginger paste
- 1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1-1/2 teaspoons fresh garlic
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
GARNISH:
- 1 teaspoon each toasted sesame seeds and black sesame seeds
DIRECTIONS
- Spiralize or very thinly slice your cucumbers, soaking up any excess liquid with a paper towel, just until they are not so wet. Toss together cucumbers, edamame, red bell pepper and jalapeno in a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a small bowl or mason jar, add all ingredients for the vinaigrette and shake or whisk well. Pour dressing into the cucumber mixture and toss well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve within 24 hours for best results.
- Note: The texture of the cucumbers when spiralized is preferred. I highly suggest it.
