Cucumber Armenian

Cucumber Armenian is a type of long, slender fruit which tastes like a cucumber and looks somewhat like a cucumber inside but it is actually a variety of melon.

It has a long, slender, and curved shape, resembling a snake or a green, elongated zucchini. Unlike typical cucumbers, it can grow quite large, often reaching lengths of 60cm.

The skin is smooth and typically bright green, though it can sometimes have a waxy appearance.

It tends to twist and coil growing on the ground, but develop straight when hanging from a trellis.

The flesh is crisp and juicy, with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. It has very few seeds compared to regular cucumbers.

Armenian cucumbers can be eaten raw in salads, pickled, or used in a variety of dishes, including stir-fries. They are often favored for their refreshing taste and crunchy texture.
