Prep the cucumbers:
Peel the cucumbers. Cut them into quarters, lengthwise. (If the seeds are bitter, scrape out the seeds and discard.) Cut the cucumbers again, crosswise, into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
Toss the salad:
Place cucumbers into a serving bowl. Sprinkle with salt. Toss with sesame oil, seasoned rice vinegar, basil (if using), and chili flakes. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds if using.
"Don't over-crowd the pan when searing meat to ensure a nice crust."
"Always taste your food and adjust seasoning (salt and pepper) at different stages."
"Let meat rest for at least 5-10 minutes after cooking to retain its juices."
"Prep all your ingredients (mise en place) before you start the heat."
