Wholesale English Cucumbers

OCT TO JUNE
Cucumbers are a versatile and common vegetable that can be found in almost every salad or vegetable tray at the grocery store, and one special type is the English cucumber. At first glance, the English cucumber might not seem very different from the regular green veggie, but cut one open and give it a taste and it’s easy to tell the difference. English cucumbers are longer and usually thinner than regular cucumbers, which is how you can tell them apart without tasting. While a regular cucumber has large seeds and a somewhat bitter taste, English cucumbers are significantly sweeter. This sweet taste is believed to be due to the much smaller seeds in the English cucumber variety, as the seeds hold most of the bitter flavor found in regular cucumbers. They can be found in many grocery stores across the country and are often a bit pricier than a regular cucumber, but many argue they are worth the extra few cents.

When it comes to choosing the right cucumber for your next salad or appetizer, there are three main varieties that you will likely come across at the supermarket: pickling, slicing, and English. Pickling cucumbers are the shortest and thickest variety with bumpy skin and are perfect for being pickled. Slicing cucumbers are the traditional variety with waxy skin and a bitter flavor. The seeds in slicing cucumbers can be removed for a less bitter flavor, but if you’re looking to cut down on preparation time and need a sweet cucumber, the English variety is the way to go.

Quality Specifications:

The quality of cucumber or slice table is primarily based on a uniform shape in a firm and dark green skin. Other quality indicators are the size and the absence of growth or handling defects, decay and yellowing.
