First tried these only about a year ago. A local Indian grocer had them and urged me to try. They’re fantastic! Agree with keeping anything mixed with them to a minimum, to maximize their taste.

My family has been eating Persian cucumbers since I was a little kid. It is amazing how flavorful they are compared to those big English ones. They’re perfect in simple salads and just plain!

We only buy Persians…from TJ’s. We also toss them in sushi vinegar with a touch of sesame oil and chopped onion; a simple and refreshing salad.

I found these cucumbers at Trader Joe’s recently here in Los Angeles. You should be able to find them, or their close cousin the Japanese cucumber, at most farmer’s markets.

I’ve never seen these before but I love cucumbers. Used to be big on kirbys but now I love the english hothouse kind. Where can I find these?

I love Persian cucumbers! They are so tender and crisp. What a nice simple and healthy thing to have after the gluttony of Thanksgiving! Thanks.
