The sauce goes well with many fried or grilled dishes or makes a nice salad dressing, as in cuke sauce on cukes.

May I know where Sin Kiang Heng is in Divisoria?

Monty, they are also called Watermelon Cucumbers in some seed packets and websites.

ConnieC, that sauce sounds wonderful. Roderick, I got these specific jars in Divisoria, at Sin Kiang Heng. But you can find similar jars at SM Home Dept, or Landmark housewares dept., etc.

Siguro sa wet market ko ito matatagpuan. Punta ko ng weekend at as usual, gayahin ko ang ginawa ni Mr. MM. Daghang salamat, ginoo.

A little goes a long way in a salad, great burst of flavor when you bite into it. Gejo grows the most amazing plants!

MM, your sesame encrusted tuna salad looks lovely. Is that pickled singkamas peering from beneath the tuna?
