Cucumbers can be washed in cool water.Carefully peel the cucumber with a vegetable peeler or cheese knife.Remove the ends of the cucumber with a sharp knife.The ends can be thrown away.
Step 2: Cut the cucumber into pieces.
A sharp wet sushi knife should be inserted into the cucumber.You should slowly slide the blade around the cucumber to cut it.Continue cutting until you reach the center of the cucumber.If you remove the knife from the cucumber, it will fall away from it's core.The cucumber should be 1/3 of a cm thick, so you can barely see the sushi knife through it.You can keep the knife wet by putting a bowl of water on the counter.It will be easier to slide through the cucumber with this.
Step 3: The tuna must be sliced.
Take a small piece of tuna and slice it.The tip of the knife should end up on the board if you slice down towards you in one fluid movement.Continue slicing the piece of tuna.The slices should be 1/3 to 1/2 of a centimeter thick.
