A to Z of Food Storage

Cucumber

Best Storage:

Fridge

Wash and dry. Wrap in a tea towel or paper towel and put into your fridge whole. Once cut, wrap tightly in a beeswax wrapper to keep crisp and fresh - not too moist or dry. Ethylene sensitive: keep away from foods that release ethylene so they don’t ripen too quickly.

Freezer?

Yes

Put cucumber whole into the freezer. Don’t bag them as ice crystals will form on the outside.

Use it up!
