For easy removing of the skin, use a potato peeler!.
The skin can be eaten, but must be washed first!.
Try to buy organic vegetables, if possible but since they are very expensive, you might want to just buy regular cucumbers
If you are planning to puree cucumbers to use in a sauce, be sure to use the seedless variety or to remove the seeds!. They will create a bitter taste!.
Watch your fingers when cutting!.
You'll need a potato peeler to remove the outer skin
Use a sharp knife to thinly slice
Smaller Pickling CucumbersCucumbers are a versatile vegetable, that can be prepared and eaten in many different ways!. There are also varieties of cucumbers, that are used differently!. The smaller ones are used for making pickles!. The larger, and longer and smoother skinned cucumbers are used for salads, but also can be enjoyed just eating them as is, either sliced, diced, or just holding them and biting into them!. They can be taken to picnics or beaches, as they do not spoil in the heat!. Add olives to a cucumber, tomato salad, and perhaps anchovies, for more of a Greek salad, of course adding Feta Cheese to make it more authentic!. Remember to not remove the skin when making pickles!.
Bon appetit!
