Enjoyable blend of flavors that offer a refreshing change of pace made using the cucumber option and thought the cucumber went very well with all the other ingredients. Made as written using regular soy sauce as could not get clear and did use the red chili option, the only thing we were not crazy about was the celery and think that in the future will use cucumber and no celery. Thanks for the post.
