Pick of the Week - Mini Lebanese Cucumber

Written By David Harris - November 10 2015

Available all year-round, mini Lebanese cucumbers are full of flavour, crunchy and fresh. They are known to be the perfect serving size with each measuring between 8.5 and 12cm long.

They do not need to be de-seeded or peeed as much of the nutritional goodness is found in the skin. They are an ideal source of folate, fibre, and vitamin C.

HOW TO PICK
Choose those with bright-green skins and firm, fresh appearance. Avoid those with soft spots or yellowing colour.

HOW TO STORE
Store in a plastic bag in the vegetable crisper for up to five days.
