Japanese cucumber, also known as Kyuri or Shintoki, is a popular cucumber variety in Japan and other parts of Asia. With its slender and delicate skin, this cucumber is mild, juicy and has a refreshing crunch. It is perfect for salads, pickling, or as a healthy snack.
In Japanese cuisine, sliced Japanese cucumber is often paired with sushi or sashimi, or served as a side dish with a variety of dipping sauces. It can also be used to make sunomono, a type of Japanese cucumber salad dressed with rice vinegar and soy sauce. For a unique twist, try using Japanese cucumber in gazpacho or other chilled soups for a cool, summery flavor.
They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week, but are best enjoyed within a few days of purchase for optimal freshness.
