"Sometimes you need to eat an entire cucumber, and this is the best way to do it." This isn't the first time cucumber salad has had it's spotlight, and it won't be the last. The highlight this time is it's ease of preparation and cleanup with a deli container, mandoline, and a little elbow grease. This recipe is a slight variation on the typical Asian cucumber salad with the addition of salmon, kewpie mayo, and furikake seasoning to give it a creamy and sushi-like twist.
