Shiso salad. In a bowl, combine 2 cups very thinly sliced peeled
cucumbers and 1/3 cup seasoned rice vinegar. Slightly crush cucumber
with your hand, and let stand at least 5 minutes. Rinse and core 1
crisp green apple (such as Granny Smith or Newtown Pippin; 1/2 lb.);
thinly slice on a food slicer or mandoline. Add apple at once to
cucumbers, and mix. Add 1/4 cup finely slivered fresh shiso leaves
(green or purple); mix. Season to taste with salt. With a slotted
spoon, mound salad on plates and garnish with fresh shiso leaves.
