Easy Korean Spicy Cucumber Salad (Oi-muchim) | Mama Cho Series

Mama Cho & I are cooking it up! This Korean Spicy Cucumber Salad recipe, aka Oi-muchim (오이무침), is my mom's recipe. Spicy Cucumber is super easy to make and a tasty side dish for your meals! 🥒

Her recipe differs slightly from mine, where she adds chives, less sugar, and no pepper paste. Elder Koreans mostly make their Spicy Cucumber like this because it is healthier.
