    3       lb           Pickling cucumbers -- peeled
    1       md           Onion -- peeled
    1       tb           Kosher salt -- plus...
    1       t            Kosher salt
    3 1/2   tb           Lemon juice
      1/4   ts           Cayenne pepper (or more)

    1 1/2   tb           Sesame oil
 
   Cut the cucumbers and onion into very fine slices (a
   food processor may be used for this).  Sprinkle with
   salt, mix well, and set aside in a bowl for an hour.
   
   Drain all the accumulated liquid and discard.  Add the
   lemon juice, cayenne pepper (Koreans like this dish
   very hot), sesame seeds, and sesame oil.  Mix well,
   cover, and refrigerate.  Serve cold or at room
   temperature.
