Step 1
Wash cucumber and cut into thin strips using the triangle slicer set and a 1 mm slicing blade. Salt the slices and let them sit for a little while.
Roast sesame seeds in a dry pan until light golden.
Step 2
Remove the stalk from the chili pepper and remove seeds using a pepper corer to reduce heat. Cut 1/4 of the chili into small cubes. This works best with a tomato knife.
