    Gherkins? Or things you only found out about late in life? The latter has possibilities, not sure about the gherkins.

    Essential for:

    1 Greek salads...tomato, cucumber (chunks) , olives, lemon juice, red peppers sliced, oregano thyme, garlic, olive oil, feta cheese

    2 Cucumber sliced very thin in sandwiches on soft white bread (crusts removed)... perfect on a hot summers day. Good with cheese too.

    3 Scaring the cat. (put one down on the floor behind it and near to it while it is not looking and it jumps a mile when it turns round and sees it)

    Screenshot_20210727_020349_com.android.chrome.jpg In answer to the question about cooking it - we have a Korean restaurant nearby which does a very spicy pork and coriander dish (hot) which includes cucumber. I reckon they must just chuck it in at the end to warm it through, as otherwise it would disintegrate into a mush. But, terrible as it sounds, it's actually absolutely superb.

    Thanks for this Peachy, we needed a change in tack from recent threads. I cooked it once, on a pizza, in food tech. It was disgusting, the pale gloopy liquid discharged across the tomato sauce like wild, diseased tributaries. To this day I don't know what I was thinking.. I love pizza and consider my exploits in food tech as a spotty teen a cardinal sin.
