Start by washing the cucumbers thoroughly.

Slice the cucumbers thinly for better texture and flavor absorption.

Place the cucumber slices in a bowl and sprinkle with salt.

Allow the salted cucumbers to sit for about 10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and crushed red pepper flakes.

After the cucumbers have released some water, rinse and drain them.

Toss the cucumbers with the dressing until well coated.

Fold in the chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.

Let the salad chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes before serving.
