Cucumbers are crisp, refreshing vegetables with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. They are primarily composed of water, making them hydrating and low in calories. Often enjoyed raw in salads, sandwiches, or as a snack, cucumbers can also be pickled for longer storage. Rich in vitamins like vitamin K and antioxidants, cucumbers support skin health, hydration, and digestion. Their cooling and hydrating properties, combined with their versatility in both savory and sweet dishes, make cucumbers a popular and healthy addition to many meals.
