Nawate
Nawate is a traditional Japanese dish, often described as a type of pickled cucumber salad. Its name derives from "nawate," which means "rope" in Japanese, likely referring to the long, thin shape of the cucumber strips used in its preparation. The primary ingredient is cucumber, which is typically thinly sliced or julienned. These cucumber pieces are then seasoned with a variety of ingredients to create a refreshing and tangy flavor profile.
Common seasonings for Nawate include rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and sometimes a touch of sesame oil
