Instructions

Prepare the cucumbers: Wash and dry them. Cut off the ends and slice at a 45-degree angle for accordion cuts, then flip over and make 90-degree cuts to create spirals.
Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey (or maple syrup), minced garlic, and chili flakes. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Assemble the salad: Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and mix gently. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
