Taiwan Pickles

Slice the English cucumber in half lengthwise, then cut the halves into thin half-moon slices.

Place the sliced cucumber in a clean glass jar or bowl.

Sprinkle salt over the cucumber slices to taste, starting with a light hand and adjusting as needed.

Stir the cucumber and salt together until well combined, ensuring the salt is distributed evenly.

Let the cucumber sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes to allow the salt to draw out the moisture and develop flavor.

Stir once more and transfer to the refrigerator to chill before serving.
