Lightly Pickled Cucumbers

• 3 Cucumbers
• 1 Kombu soup stock
• 1/2 tsp Salt (or 2 teaspoons of shio-koji)
• 1/2 tsp Sugar
• 1 Ichimi chili pepper powder
• 1 Storing container (big enough to fit the cucumbers)

1. Slice cucumber and put in container.
2. A teaspoon of sugar also gives it a nice touch.
3. Add seasonings.
4. Cover with lid and shake.
5. Turn over pieces from time to time.
6. If using a bag, rub the cucumbers.
7. Chill in the refrigerator.
8. Wait for at least an hour.
9. You could make this in the morning to have for dinner.
10. I also tried this with turnips.
11. They took longer to pickle than cucumbers.
12. I'll create a different recipe for the turnips another time.
