June is National Cucumber Month!

There is a variety of cucumbers that are currently in season, including Select (Regular), English (Seedless), Persian, and Kirby cucumbers. Select cucumbers are the most popular type of cucumber and have a slightly acidic, but fresh taste. Select cucumbers can be sliced, diced, or minced and are typically used in salads and garnishes. English cucumbers have a slightly sweet flavor profile and are not as acidic as select cucumbers. They are generally long and narrow in shape with small seeds and thin skin. English cucumbers typically are not used in pickling processes and tend to be used sliced. They are often used in salads or on sandwiches. Persian cucumbers are thinner and shorter than English and Select cucumbers. They taste similar to English cucumbers and also have small seeds and a thin skin. Persian cucumbers offer a crisp, refreshing bite. Kirby cucumbers are small and bumpy, which is why they are commonly used in pickling recipes. This variety is crunchy and ranges in color from yellow to green.  All of these varieties are available for delivery on your next order!
