  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Diet: High-Protein, Low-Carb

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large English cucumber (hothouse cucumber)
  • 4 oz smoked salmon, flaked (or canned tuna/chicken)
  • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon MSG (optional, but recommended for the authentic Logan flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon whipped cream cheese or Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Everything Bagel seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes or chili crisp
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Using a mandoline slicer, carefully slice the entire English cucumber directly into a large deli container or a Tupperware bowl with a lid. Ensure the slices are thin and uniform for the best texture.
  2. Pour the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and fish sauce over the cucumber slices. If you are using MSG to enhance the umami flavor, sprinkle it in at this stage along with the chili flakes.
  3. Add your chosen protein source, such as the smoked salmon or tuna, into the container. Add a dollop of cream cheese or Greek yogurt, which will create a light, creamy dressing once shaken.
  4. Secure the lid tightly on your container. Shake the container vigorously for about 30 to 60 seconds. This action breaks down the cream cheese and ensures the seasonings and protein are evenly distributed throughout the cucumber slices.
  5. Open the lid and sprinkle the Everything Bagel seasoning and fresh green onions over the top. You can eat it straight out of the container just like Logan does!
