Hot take Wednesday. When a recipe says to scoop out the seeds in tomatoes or cucumbers for a salad or whatever. No. I paid for those seeds. They are going in. I don't care if it makes it soggy. Plus that's extra work that I'm not prepared to commit to.
Save more time and just throw out the whole cucumber. Genuinely the worst vegetable ever.
No way. Cucumber soup on a hot day is the best. Cucumber, yogurt, mint, bit of water and salt & pepper. For those days when it's too hot to chew.
Try this:
Yogurt
Salt
Squeeze of Lime
Black pepper
diced tomatoes (optional)
Grated cucumber (into thin strips)
Give it a nice whirl and it makes an excellent side on a warm day!
I like that!
