With this method, the cucumber slices have some decorative dark green accents and a little bit of extra crunchiness. Cut the cucumber into small pieces In a small bowl, soak the dried seaweed in warm water. Let it soak for 15 minutes. Drain and squeeze liquid out. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients for Vinaigrette. Add the cucumber, octopus, seaweed, and sesame seeds and toss all together.
