  • Small cucumbers: We chose small cucumbers because of their crispness and smaller size.
  • ginger: Ginger is used to add flavor to the cucumbers in this recipe. Freshly grated is best.
  • Soy sauce: You can’t have a sushi recipe without soy sauce! This is absorbed by the cucumber to create the sushi flavor you know and love.
