Cucumber varieties and best uses
The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common cucumber varieties compare.
| Variety | Best for |
|---|---|
| Slicing (American Slicer) | All-purpose salads and snacking: dark-green waxed skin (usually peeled), watery flesh; the cheap supermarket default. |
| English (Hothouse) | Salads and sandwiches: long, seedless, thin-skinned; no peeling needed and the mildest flavour. |
| Persian / Lebanese | Snacking and salads: small, crisp, seedless; eat skin and all. |
| Kirby (Pickling) | Pickles and quick brines: short and bumpy, firm flesh that stays crunchy in vinegar. |
| Armenian (Yard-long) | Salads and tzatziki: long and ribbed, technically a melon; thin skin, mild and crisp. |
Which should I pick?
For salads and sandwiches, English / Hothouse is the pick: long, seedless, thin-skinned, no peeling needed. No English? Persian / Lebanese cucumbers are smaller but equally crisp and mild.
