These cucumber shrimp boats are packed with flavor and texture, thanks to a spicy mayo drizzle, soy-sauce shrimp and crunchy umami furikake. We use mini cucumbers, but if you can't find them, you can swap in two regular cucumbers. Be sure to squeeze out the liquid from the scooped-out cucumber to prevent sogginess.
