Looks delicious. I'm a chef at an Italian restaurant but I love cooking asian cuisine. Your channel has taught me a lot.

This is one of my favorite sides to eat during summer. I'm going to keep this recipe in mind when the nearby farm stand opens up. They always have amazing cucumbers that I can't get the same at any grocery store. I do have a really good Chinese black vinegar at home; I have found though that balsamic is a little closer in flavor, or if someone has both, maybe a 50/50 balsamic-apple cider blend. Black vinegar has a great flavor, and given that it has a near indefinite shelf life I would certainly encourage folks to get their hands on some, but not pass on this recipe if not!

Mandy, you're always on time! I love your channel and recipes. You remind me a lot of my best friend growing up. May you live long and heathy... and be lucky and make lots of money! Love you!

A perfect summer salad! It would be great with grilled meats. Yummy!!!

Perfect timing. I was reviewing cucumber salad recipes for dinner! Thank you.

You are awesome just like your recipes! Thank you Mandy!🤗

Also a good substitute for zhenjiang black vinegar is balsamic vinegar. They are kind of similar in character and taste. Great recipe Mandy.

Yess mandy slay the house

This is a recipe I've been making for a long time! I LOVE it, it's so easy, bright, and fresh tasting, it goes really well with richer dishes like red braised meats.

I love cucumber salad! I can't wait to try this take on it.

Nice! I'll be making this when the weather gets warmer (it's a bit chilly today). Thank you Mandy!

OMG! Thank you! Thank you! I spent a couple of years going to China often, for work. And of all the amazing food I ate there, this cucumber salad is one of the things I missed the most! I can't believe im now making it at home! Thanks to you!!!🙏🏼 I always wondered what they did to the cucumber to give it that texture! Its amazing!🥰🥰 Thanks again!!

It looks simple and delicious! Right on time for the summer :)

My favorite Chef for Chinese food recipes. She always looks as great as her dishes. Thanks for another great tip. Crushing cucumbers, who would have thought of that.

I' ve just made it and it is absolutely delicious ! plus it's super easy to make so thank you very much for this recipe !

I love smashed cucumber salad. Very refreshing. I get it everytime I order Chinese food.

Thanks Mandy for the recipe. I gave it a try, and love it..!

Yum!!! I love all the different ways you can make cucumber. It never ceases to amaze me! This looks delicious!

Completely forgot about this salad so glad to be reminded.

Nice n simple. Looks yummy.

This was delicious and so easy to make! Thank you!❤

Thanks so much for this recipe! I can’t wait to try it with cucumbers from the summer farmer’s market. I can almost always find black vinegar at H Mart or other Asian supermarkets, sometimes it’s called Chinkiang vinegar. It is such an amazing flavor, I highly encourage anyone making this recipe to try to seek it out.

Very yummy. Thank you!

Mandy this is my favorite salad. Awesome job smashing that cucumber. Have a great day.

Perfect for summer!

My favorite. Even in different variations.

I get food boxes from the local community garden and they always give a huge amount of certain veggies. Right now I have TEN cucumbers😮 we can only have so many sandwiches 😂 this looks delicious and I can easily use 3 or 4 for a family meal side🎉 Thanks, girl!❤

Mandy you are just the best!! Greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮/ 🇪🇺 .

I made it and it taste delicious I lived 8 years in china and now I'm back in to my country and I miss food do much, this brought me good memories, thank you for sharing this recipe!

Woow Fantastic the cucumber salad thy you made! You seasoned perfectly! Love it! 🦇

Love it, thank you mandy x

Yum, thanks!!

Looks so yummy...😋😋😋

Omg! I had a cucumber that was on its last leg. I used this recipe and so happened to have black vinegar. It was amazing!! This will be a staple in my house!

Look so tasty and nicely prepared...Thanks for sharing 🤝

Hey I'm new to your channel. I tried this recipe I ate every bite lol. I haven't enjoyed cucumbers for many years. This is one I will make again and again. I also made your shrimp and broccoli so good. I had a carbon steel wok that I used several times but everything stuck to the pan. I followed your steps and wow amazing non stick. thanks for doing your channel and I'm so glad I found it.

Ok, all I can say is YUM! I can't wait to make this tonight for dinner, to go with our marinated pork. Thanks Mandy, keep up the great job you are doing.

one of my fav chinese appetizers, and yes especially when cucumbers are smashed

Yummy salad.

Nice recipe. Actually my parents make this for the summer during those hot days

Nice on a summer's day.

Awesome!!

Thanks for the video

I love cucumber salads, what a pleasant video, Mandy. I can't eat spicy food, but I have chinese black vinegar. I have all the ingredients in my home so I'll try it in the next meal. :D Thank you

Looks nice

Awesome!

Thanks Mandy.

That knife set is looks great. I wanna go check it out

I've made this salad and eaten it restaurants many times. Last week I had this salad last in a Chinese restaurant and they didn't smash it. I quickly realised that the reason for smashing it isn't only for the flavour to absorb into the cucumber better, but also so that one can grab it with chopsticks better. It was impossible without smashed edges!

Love it thank you very much Mindy 🤍🤍

Looks great! Thanks for a vegan recipe!😊🌱

thank you for giving it in fnglish. very good

Wow! I've NEVER known about beating up a cucumber! 😅 Makes sense, though..... That will allow the seasonings to soak into the cucumber. 🥒 I'll definitely use the english cucumber. ✅ Thank you, Mandy. ❤

Resep yang mudah terimakasih kaka

As Mandy said don’t mix until ready to eat. I’ve made mistake by preparing it early and eating much later. Cucumber will continue to release liquid so dressing gets diluted

That happens to me all the time when I can't finish smashed cucumber salad in one sitting, there's always excess water the next day 😞 All the seasoning becomes diluted

Souped Up Recipes where did you purchase the small white garlic grater?

Nice. I think I will add some cherry tomatoes into the mix!

I have always disliked cucumbers but this is 🤤 I’ve made everyone I know try it now ahah

I imagine this cucumber recipe going well with grilled meat or fish👍🏻👍🏻

Looks delish

oh hell yeah

I want more of your 3 course dinner

I use Zhenjiang vinegar and didn't use sesame oil。But I think I will put some sesame oil in from now on.

Her laugh @ 3:15... 👍

its even better in a day or two after making. IMO

Oops, just saw the comment below. Mixed and placed in fridge. Still delicious but gets too wet if you mix way before eating. Won't make that mistake next time. Thanks for a tasty recipe.

The black vinegar you use, is that Zhen Jiang vinegar?

❤❤❤ God bless you Sister. 🤍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

nice, why no hot oil on top?

Link to kitchen ware does not work

And of course it's better than next day 👍

sweetie, I'm from Australia, so please tell me what is that thing hanging above your cook top? we don't have that here 😃

Would you please tell me what kind of oil you usually use? We want to make the Sesame Chicken, Broccoli Beef, Pepper Beef, etc. Is there a certain type of oil you prefer? Thank you ! We are looking forward to trying your recipes. They look amazing.

So sorry re your allergies but I after years of munching Chillies had anaphylaxis to them a couple of weeks ago so now, any Chilli, Paprika, Chyenne Pepper etc out It is, really challenging to find safe alternative as for eating out what a nightmare when all you get told is seasonings been added. I do not know about you but folk think it is just a choice I do not like heat not a, real allergic reaction
