Asian-Style Grilled Cucumber and Scallion Salad

1-2 Cucumbers

½ bunch Scallions

3 Tbsp. Rice Wine Vinegar

2 Tbsp. pickled Ginger sliced very thin

1 Tbsp. Sesame Oil

1 Tbsp. Sesame Seeds

½ tsp Sugar

1/4tsp dried Chili Flakes

1 Tbsp. Canola Oil

Pinch of Salt and Pepper

Cut Cucumbers in half lengthwise and toss with scallions in canola oil. Add a pinch of salt and grill over medium-high heat until you start to see some charring to occur. Then pull from the grill and slice thin crosswise. 

Mix 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly then toss in sliced cucumber and scallions, 2 tablespoons sliced pickled ginger, ¼ tsp Chili flakes and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds. Mix well and serve. You may want to chop up some of the crispy head lettuce to bulk up the salad and add a little more crunch.
