ALL ABOUT THESE CUCUMBERS

Boston pickling cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) are small, crisp cucumbers with thin, bumpy green skin and firm flesh. Their compact size and sturdy texture make them ideal for pickling, as they absorb brine well and retain a satisfying crunch. In the kitchen, they’re commonly used to make dill pickles, bread-and-butter pickles, or tangy relishes. They can also be sliced fresh into salads or used as a garnish for sandwiches and burgers, adding a refreshing bite.
