Prep the scallions by rinsing, cutting in fine slices and reserving into a bowl filled with cold water and ice. This will keep them fresh and crisp

Peel the cucumber. Half lengthwise, remove the seeds. Slice the cucumber into half inch pieces. Reserve in a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and toss the cucumbers until covered by salt evenly. Let the cucumber "sweat" for 5 min.
