Persian Cucumbers

Persian Cucumbers

EverydayFresh

Persian cucumbers are a compact, thin-skinned variety prized for their crisp texture and minimal seeds compared to standard cucumbers. These slender vegetables maintain a refreshing crunch even when sliced, with a subtly sweet flavor and none of the bitterness associated with larger cucumber varieties. Their edible skin and low-calorie, high-water content make them ideal for raw applications like salads, crudité platters, or hydrating snacks requiring no peeling.
