About this Product

Belonging to the “Cucurbitaceae family”, cucumbers are among the oldest domesticated vegetables in the world. The first crops date back, in fact, to almost 5000 years ago, at the foot of the Hymalayas. Whether cooked or raw, cucumber is the real protagonist of summer recipes, fast, fresh and tasty.

In the kitchen, it is perfect both for flavoring salads and as an aperitif, precisely because its delicate and light taste enhances the flavor of the other ingredients. It is perfect paired with spices, but also in tasty soups. Summer dishes are rich in it and any good salad does not give up its flavor (try it with sprouts, corn and radicchio). If you love to use creativity in the kitchen, it can also become the protagonist of small finger food, perfect to be served as an appetizer in delicious cold dishes, from stuffed cucumbers, to rolls to condiments.
