I found this salad to be bland and uninspired. The seaweed didn't add much flavor, and the dressing was very watery.

This salad was a bit too vinegary for my taste. I think I would have preferred a dressing made with soy sauce and sesame oil.

I'm not a big fan of seaweed, but I actually really enjoyed this salad. The cucumber and sesame seeds were a great combination.

This was a great way to use up some leftover cucumber. I added a bit of extra sesame oil and ginger to the dressing, and it was delicious.
