  • I have ended up with six English cucumbers! Does anyone have any idea how I can use them up? Pickles?
  • LOL... I don't know- but when I saw this I thought its way to early in the year for this post! LOL
  • They're greenhouse, of course. Cucumber mask?
  • You could try one of these salads:

    I'm also a big fan of homemade Tzatiki sauce, to use on wraps/sandwiches and stuff.
  • my favorite is just thinly sliced with some rice vinegar over them. Yum!
  • I know what to do with them but I have six of the suckers. I have a feeling they may end up as compost unless I eat two a day.
  • Sliced with a little sea salt and lime juice sprinkled over them.
  • Slice in half long-ways, scoop out seeds with a spoon. Take cottage cheese and fresh herbs (dill, basil, cilantro, whatever!) and mix together. Spoon down the center of each half and it's a snack?
  • I think I would make a cucumber and tomato salad for a few days
  • Ruth, are you testing us?
  • at Schmoo. Nope! I did Good Food Box today and ended up mis-managing trades. I might end up making freezer pickles out of these monsters. I did eat half of one with lunch.
  • Ruthie, haul out your dehydrator and make cucumber chips with them. They're wonderful sprinkled with a little olive oil and garlic powder before you dry them, and they're also pretty good with chili powder and garlic. Enjoy! (Burrrrrrrrrp! )
  • Oooh, great idea, Cottage! You've got me longing for a dehydrator again.
  • Oh my! What a great idea! I'll try not to slice off my finger on the mandolin this time. I have dried dill and some sea salt and will try different flavours.
  • Laurie Me too! too bad we don't live closer we could share one
    Ruth Make Tzaziki sauce Greek Yogurt Garlic DIll (I'm allergic) and Cukes
    But if you make the cukes chunky it would be moer salad than sauce
