Who are cucumbers?

Scientists believe that the homeland of cucumbers is India, it was there that they were born over 6 thousand years ago and subsequently it was from there that they began their march around the world. By the way, there, at the foot of the Himalayas, cucumbers still grow in natural conditions - wild. Like weeds - not cultivated or cultivated by anyone.

In addition, it is interesting to know that cucumbers are the few fruits that people eat when unripe. If you let cucumbers “get ready” in the garden, they will acquire hard skin, large seeds and a boring, insipid taste and absolutely not juicy pulp. It is for this reason that the plant got its name: in Greek, cucumbers sound like “aguros”, which literally means “unripe”, “unripe”.

Benefits of cucumbers

The common belief that there is nothing healthy or harmful in cucumbers is just a common opinion. Even if they don’t contain as many vitamins as we would like (and over time, the little that they do have is reduced to a minimum), but they don’t have any extra calories, which turns these vegetables into perfect product nutrition for everyone who is forced to strictly monitor their weight. In addition, cucumbers have the ability to regulate appetite, “convince” the body that it is full, and control human metabolism.

Cucumbers are almost 99% water - they perfectly quench thirst, promote digestion, have a diuretic effect and simply perfectly and delicately cleanse the intestines. Green long comrades - indispensable source potassium: thanks to this mineral, cucumbers are recognized as fighters for proper functioning vascular system and significant assistants in the functioning of the heart muscle.

If you eat cucumbers constantly and regularly, they neutralize the effect of acidic compounds in the intestines, thereby preventing the deposition of salts. In addition, nutritionists believe that this vegetable prevents thyroid diseases, fights early aging of the body and has a choleretic effect.

Alas, only the fresh cucumbers(and the sooner they got from the garden to your table, the more benefits will bring), however, their canned counterparts have one significant advantage: they are undeniably more appetizing, and for their crunch and spicy taste in winter you can give away half your kingdom and even a horse to boot!

10 tips on how to make cucumber salad for the winter interesting and original:

1. Experiment with additives - many products that seem unexpected “sound” very interesting in cucumber salad. Try, for example, pouring a teaspoon of mustard beans into a jar - it will not only add flavor to the snack, but will also “reward” it with a pleasant flavor. Or cinnamon - don’t think that this is only a dessert additive; in a cucumber salad it will sparkle with spicy “colors,” emphasizing the aroma of vegetables and helping the other ingredients to reveal themselves.

1. Take your time and cut at least some of the cucumbers into shapes. It’s very easy to make “stars” - to do this, you just need to make long longitudinal grooves all over the cucumber, then cut it into circles; the cut will form “stars” or “snowflakes”. You can also make any other shapes - hearts, squares and triangles, drops, flowers. This unobtrusive decor decorates a jar of salad well.

1. The salt you use to prepare the preserves should be regular rock salt. Options such as “extra”, iodized, Himalayan and other bells and whistles are absolutely not suitable. Save them for salads and dressings.

1. Don't skimp on the greens. Even if the recipe doesn’t indicate it, you can always add a couple of “umbrellas” of “adult” dill or a root of parsley - these ingredients will never be superfluous. In addition, you can chop a bunch of cilantro into a jar with salad, add tarragon, and put a little basil.

1. Cucumbers go well with many other vegetables. Try, experiment - you can preserve a salad for the winter with cucumbers and cauliflower, squash, bell peppers and an additional bunch of different options.

1. And don’t be shy, don’t be afraid of substitutions: if you don’t like mustard, feel free to take hot pepper; if you don’t like parsley, buy cilantro; if you can’t stand carrots, swap it for pumpkin.

1. It is believed that the best varieties cucumbers that are suitable for preservation - with pimples. Smooth-skinned cucumbers are not intended for future use.

1. Before preparing cucumber salad for the winter, check the vegetables for a bitter taste - it would be a shame if you canned a dozen jars of bitter cucumber salad. The test is simple: try a piece of cucumber in the darkest part.

1. Don’t be upset if you get slightly wilted cucumbers for the salad: place them in a bowl with cold water, leave for 3-5 hours. After the specified time, you will again have crispy, elastic cucumbers.

1. When storing jars of cucumber salad, make sure that direct sunlight does not have access to your preparations: the more light that falls on the cucumbers, the paler and more inconspicuous the salad will end up on your plate.
