Green Tea Marinated Cucumbers

Here the green tea works with sesame oil and rice wine vinegar as a low-oil dressing. This is a good relish with hot rice and grilled beef or tofu.

Serves 2-4.





List of Ingredients



• Green Tea Vinaigrette:
  
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  
• 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  
• 1 cup strong Celestial Seasonings Authentic green tea
  
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
  
• 1 teaspoon shredded, dried seaweed, if available, OR 1 dash hot pepper sauce
  
• 3 small cucumbers, sliced into chunks
  






Instructions



1. To make green tea, pour hot but not boiling water over teabags and steep for five minutes. Use one teabag for every 8 ounces (1 cup) of hot water.
   
2. Whisk together vinaigrette ingredients, and toss with cucumbers.
