Once you have microplaned a whole cucumber into a deli container and shaken it in a slew of complimentary ingredients, you’ll understand TikTok’s latest viral sensation. Social media creator Logan has reinvigorated love for the humble, crunchy cucumber. Thin slices are tossed in an array of dressings. The possibilities are endless. Cucumbers prove to be a crisp canvas for big flavor. We chose to join this trend with a spicy miso maple cucumber salad.

Soy sauce, miso and maple syrup are a harmonious pairing. Mixed with chili crisp for spice, this salad is a combination of spicy, sweet and salty. Enjoy it straight from the container, as intended, or serve it over rice for more of a meal.
