Save my recipe for Cucumber Kimchi! A lot of you guys requested a substitute for gochugaru, which is a Korean pepper powder. I experimented with a few spicy chili powders and I think I found the perfect combo with paprika, cayenne and crushed red pepper. Ingredients are:
8 Persian cucumbers,
1 small carrot,
1 small onion,
a tbsp minced garlic,
1/2 tbsp salt,
1 tsp sugar,
2 tbsp paprika,
1/2 tbsp cayenne,
1/2 tbsp crushed red pepper,
1/4 cup rice vinegar,
1/4 cup sesame oil
and 1 tbsp sesame seeds.
