minus-squareKlnsfw 🏳️🌈linkfedilinkEnglish6•edit-225 days agoThe TikTok trend is roughly as follows: smash a cucumber and cut in chunks add salt, mix and put in the fridge for a while to remove some water from the cucumber rince make a sauce with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh ginger add some topping, like green onions, sesame seed, wakame seeweed, pepper flakes, cilantro, crushed peanuts or whatever you like
