4 Servings
1
oz. dried wakame
½
cup distilled white vinegar
⅔
cup sugar
3
tablespoons kosher salt
1
teaspoon black peppercorns

English hothouse cucumber or 2 kirby cucumbers, sliced ¼” thick
¼
medium daikon (Japanese white radish; about 6 oz.), peeled, thinly sliced
Preparation

Step 2
Meanwhile, bring vinegar, sugar, salt, peppercorns, and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan, whisking to dissolve sugar and salt. Let cool.
Step 3
Combine wakame, cucumber, daikon, and pickling liquid in a medium bowl. Cover and chill at least 24 hours. Drain excess liquid just before serving.
Step 4
DO AHEAD: Salad can be made 3 days ahead; keep chilled.
