Shanghai Cucumbers

Obviously it's not cucumber season so the cucumber I picked up for a salad was a bit on the dry side. This recipe was the perfect solution. I loved these Shanghai Cucumbers. Mr. Lawyer thought they were okay but I think he's really weird about Asian inspired flavors, especially sesame. The longer they sat in the fridge, the better they got. It was the perfect after school snack!
