Description

Japanese Cucumber, also known as Kyuri, is a fresh vegetable known for its slender shape, thin green skin, small seeds and crisp texture. With its mild, refreshing flavour, it is suitable for salads, sushi, pickles, chilled noodle dishes and a variety of everyday meals.

Physical Characteristics

  • Size: Grows 7 to 9 inches (18 to 22 cm) long with a uniform, narrow, cylindrical shape.

  • Skin & Surface: Deep forest-green, thin, and slightly ribbed with tiny, subtle prickly bumps along the surface.

  • Seeds & Core: Very small, soft seed cavity with a dense, crisp surrounding flesh.

  • Texture: Remarkably snappy and firm throughout—never watery, soft, or seedy.

Growth and Origin

  • Native Habitat: Developed in Japan and widely cultivated across East and Southeast Asia.

  • Cultivation & Sourcing: Grown under controlled agricultural conditions to protect the delicate skin, harvested young using standard farming practices to guarantee crisp firmness and steady year-round availability.

How to Use
Wash the Japanese cucumber thoroughly under clean running water before use. Slice it thinly for salads, sushi rolls and sandwiches, or cut it into sticks for a refreshing snack. You can also toss it with sesame oil, garlic and soy sauce for a simple side dish, or pickle it with vinegar and seasonings. Japanese cucumber is commonly enjoyed raw and can also be added to cold noodle dishes.

Nutritional Benefits
Japanese cucumber is a low-calorie vegetable with a high water content. It provides small amounts of vitamin K, vitamin C and potassium, making it a refreshing addition to salads, snacks and everyday meals.

How to Store
Keep fresh Japanese cucumber refrigerated until ready to use. Store it in the refrigerator's crisper drawer to help maintain its crisp texture. Avoid excess moisture and keep it away from very cold areas that may damage the cucumber. Wash it just before use and consume while it remains firm and fresh.
