Other than cucumber sandwich and pickle how else can I use up a lot of cucumber without too much work? Cucumber Kimchee 3 cucumbers; peeled 1-tablespoon salt 1-tablespoon red pepper powder 1-tablespoon garlic; minced 2 green onions; sliced Seed the cucumbers and cut them into 1" pieces. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 3 hours in a colander. Rinse and pat dry. Add the red pepper powder, garlic and green onions. Mix. Chill for 24 hours. It's the perfect accompaniment to: ------- Bulgoki 1 lb. lean beef (for example, sirloin tip) 1 T. sugar 2 1/2 T. soy sauce 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 2 medium green onions, thinly sliced 1 t. sesame seed, toasted and lightly pounded 1/8 t. black pepper 1/2 t. sesame oil Cut the beef against the grain into thin slices about 1/4" thick. Place the beef in a bowl and add the sugar. Mix well and let stand for 10 minutes. Combine the remaining ingredients and mix well. Marinate for at least two hours before cooking. Grill on a charcoal fire or oven-broil at 450F for about 1 minute on each side until browned. ----- Personally I like to stir-fry the beef in a wok with the marinade and serve with white rice. Bulgoki, rice and cucumber kimchee. All that's missing is a bottle of Soju. -- -Jeff B. "Excuse me. I don't mean to impose, but I am the Ocean." ~ The Salton Sea |

Excess cucumber
Tuna boats. :-) (or alternative stuffings)
Peel cucumber, slice it down the middle and remove the seeds with a spoon to make the "boat". Stuff with Tuna salad or peanut butter, or anything else you'd stuff a celery stick with. -- Peace!
