Yakuza Cucumber and Avocado Salad

I first tasted a similar salad at one of my favorite Japanese restaurants, Yakuza Lounge in Portland, Oregon. The way the crisp cucumbers and creamy avocados interacted with the punchy dressing really caught my attention. Although you can make the dressing ahead, you should really assemble the dish just before serving to keep the flavors fresh and the avocados from discoloring. And please don’t skip out on salting the cucumbers; it’s actually an important step. It allows all the extra liquid to drain into the sink instead diluting of your salad.
