Japanese Cucumber Kyuri in Creamy Peanut Butter

A "no-cook" creation for "No-Cook" Event at Seduce Your Tastebuds. What a wonderful refreshing snack. Nutty, fresh flavors! You can use also celery sticks which is actually more common with peanut butter dip. I just happen to have cucumber and not celery and thought the crisp and crunch texture of both cucumber and celery are similar. Taste-wise: celery is more "pungent" and stronger in taste than cucumber.


Japanese Cucumber (Kyuri) in Creamy Peanut Butter
Ingredients: Japaneses cucumber, thinly sliced; peanut butter (I use creamy version)
Directions: Drizzle the peanut butter over the cucumber or prepare cucumber dip sticks to dip into peanut butter.

    Interesting variation! Usually I see sesame paste used in this manner, this is the first time I see peanut butter being used.

    This is definitely a simpler version than dipping cucumber in bumbu gado-gado (peanut dressing from Java), yet it will be just as delicious.

    Ooo, interesting. Peanut and cucumber sounds like a good combo though! I like to serve up cucumber with different vinegars and sometimes ponzu.
