Wash your cucumber and peel (if desired, peeling the cucumber is not mandatory).
Slice into very thin slices, using a sharp knife. You can use a mandolin slicer, but I personally like to slice cucumbers with a knife.
Place cucumbers in a colander over a bowl.
Sprinkle some salt over the cucumbers and let it sit over them for 5 minutes.
Next dry the slices between two paper towels. This is an important step so that your cucumbers don't get soggy.ucumbers
