Wash the cucumbers thoroughly under running water.
Step 2
Using a peeler or julienne peeler, thinly peel the ends of the cucumbers and trim off the stem ends.

Slice the cucumbers diagonally into bite-sized pieces, about 0.5 cm thick. This shape helps the seasoning coat evenly and taste better.

Step 5
Wash the chives, drain them well, and cut them into 3 cm lengths.
Step 6
Add the prepared chives to the bowl with the cucumbers.

Now it’s time for the seasoning. Add 3 tablespoons of store-bought all-purpose bibim & muchim sauce, 1 tablespoon of gochugaru, and 2 tablespoons of toasted sesame seeds to the bowl.
Step 8
Gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Be gentle to preserve the crispness of the cucumbers. Tip: If you’d like to adjust the seasoning, feel free to add a pinch of salt or a little minced garlic to your preference.
Step 9
Your crisp and refreshing cucumber and chive salad is ready! It’s delicious served immediately, or for an extra treat, chill it in the refrigerator for a bit.
