Materials

  • Cucumber 1

  • black pepper 1/2 tsp or to taste
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

      Thank you so much for your kind words about the YouTube channel—it truly means a lot to know you’re learning from the content!
      I also appreciate your honest feedback about the website. I’m really sorry for the inconvenience caused by the ads and the incomplete recipe. That’s absolutely not the experience I want for visitors. The title should have matched the full content, including the mayo and chili sauce, and I’ll be updating that ASAP to make sure it’s complete and useful.
      Regarding the ads, I understand how disruptive they can feel. While they help support the site and content creation, your experience matters most—so I’m already exploring better ways to balance ad placement with smoother browsing.
      Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts. They help me improve and serve this community better. 🙏
