  1. Trim both ends off the cucumber, then crush it into bite-size pieces with a rolling pin or other heavy object.
  2. Toss the cucumber with the salt and let it sweat for about 10 minutes.
  3. When it has released water and gone limp, squeeze out the excess water with your hands and transfer to a dry bowl.
