What is a "cucumber"?
A cucumber is a long, green vegetable with a cylindrical shape and smooth skin. It has a mild, refreshing taste and a crisp texture. Cucumbers are commonly eaten raw and can be sliced and added to salads, sandwiches, or enjoyed on their own as a healthy snack. They are also used in various dishes such as gazpacho, sushi rolls, and pickles. Cucumbers are low in calories and rich in water, making them a hydrating and nutritious addition to meals.
