About Shredded cucumber with sesame seeds
Shredded Cucumber with Sesame Seeds is a refreshing side dish often found in East Asian cuisine, particularly Chinese and Korean meals. Made with thinly shredded cucumber, toasted sesame seeds, and a light dressing typically composed of sesame oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt, it balances simplicity with robust flavor. This dish is naturally hydrating due to the cucumber's high water content, which also contributes essential vitamins like vitamin K and antioxidants. The sesame seeds, though small, are packed with healthy fats, calcium, and protein. Low in calories and free of heavy oils or artificial additives, it makes for a guilt-free addition to any meal. However, be mindful of portion sizes if additional sodium is used for flavor, as excessive salt can impact heart health. Overall, this light, nutrient-rich dish is ideal for those seeking a flavorful yet healthy option in their diet.
