Steps:
- If using an ordinary cucumber, halve it lengthwise and scrape out the seeds; Japanese cucumbers do not need to be deseeded. Cut the cucumber into paper-thin slices. Place the slices in a bowl with water to cover, add the salt, and set aside to soak for 20 minutes.
- Soak the wakame in lukewarm water for 20 minutes; it will swell and become a rich glossy green. Drain and plunge briefly into boiling water, then rinse in cold water to give it a more intense color. Drain well and pat dry. With a sharp knife trim away the tough stem and chop the wakame coarsely. Drain the cucumber and pat dry.
- Combine the dresssing ingredients in a small saucepan and heat to dissolve the sugar or honey; remove from the heat immediatel;y and chill. Combine the cucumber and wakame and pour the chilled dressing over it just before serving. Toss gently. Arrange neat mounds of the salad in individual bowls.

- If you are using Japanese cucumber, this step called “Itazuri” is necessary. Wash the cucumber and sprinkle it with salt. With both hands, rub the cucumber against the cutting board. It removes the pointy bumps on the cucumber and helps absorb the dressing.
- Alternately peel ½-inch (1.3 cm) strips lengthwise, leaving a strip of the skin intact. With this method, the cucumber slices have some decorative dark green accents and a little bit of extra crunchiness. Cut the cucumbers into thin slices, about ⅛-inch (3 mm) thickness (or even thinner).
- Sprinkle salt and rub the cucumber slices gently with your hands. After 5 minutes or so when they are wilted, quickly rinse the cucumber slices under cold water. Squeeze the cucumber to get rid of the water.
- Put dried wakame in a small bowl and soak in water for 10 minutes. Squeeze dry to get rid of the water.
