Step-by-Step Instructions
- Wash and pat dry 2 to 3 English cucumbers. Thinly slice them into rounds or half-moons, about 1/4 inch thick. Place in a large mixing bowl.
- Chop 1/4 to 1/3 cup of peanuts and 2 to 3 tablespoons of green onions. Add to the cucumbers. Sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes if desired. Toss gently.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce. Gradually add 1.5 to 2 tablespoons of water to achieve desired thickness. Include sriracha, rice vinegar, and sesame oil, stirring until well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture and toss gently to coat the cucumbers.
- Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with additional white sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve right away or let chill for about 10 to 15 minutes.

Notes
For the best crunch, use fresh cucumbers. Adjust the dressing consistency gradually and consider adding shredded carrots for extra texture.
