I found this monster cucumber next to the fence after the rest of the vine had shriveled.  Nearly two pounds and skin as hard as winter squash.  Anyone know a way to make this palatable?  Would a mature cuke  bake up like squash?

There are some good recipes in this thread and links:  https://permies.com/t/58584/huge-cucumbers

Yep....it's large, over-ripe cucumber time again in the northern hemisphere!.....

It's good to want things. Want away. Want this tiny ad.
