In Dutch, cucumber time is a way of referring to the hot, lazy days of summer, when the kids are on holiday and the pace of business slows down a tick. I’m not sure the figurative cucumber time has arrived, but the literal cucumber time is upon us! I harvested the first cucumber this morning and, from the looks of it, cucumbers 2-5 will follow post haste. These three cucumber recipes will get heavy use in the coming days and weeks!
