TikTok blamed for hit to Iceland cucumber supply
One supermarket says demand has more than doubled, after viral videos promote unique recipes.
You're viewing a single thread.
Ok, it's time to spill those recipes; whose got'em?!
The TikTok trend is roughly as follows:
smash ? like, slap the wall with it ? I can't picture what this means (thanks for the recipe)
In Japan, we just smack them with something like a rolling pin, butt of a knife, etc.
Maybe smash isn't the right word (I'm not a native English speaker).
You put the cucumber on a cutting board, lay a large knife flat on it and strike the flat of the blade with the underside of your fist.
Maybe smash isn’t the right word (I’m not a native English speaker).
You had it right. Someone else forgot their ephemeral slang isn't the only way a word can be used.
That's correct, but crush could maybe be an alternative.
ah ok, makes sense
Cut cucumber in thin slices and put in a bowl. Mix the following: 2 tablespoons of water 2 tablespoons of vinegar (preferably apple cider) 1 tablespoon of sugar 0.5 teaspoon of salt 0.25 teaspoon of pepper
Pour it over the cucumber slices and leave it alone for 10-15 minutes.
