Fried squid with cucumber flowers

Cucumber flowers, small cucumbers, newly grown top-flowered cucumbers, where did this come from? I think the cucumbers are setting too densely and some need to be cut off to facilitate the normal growth of the cucumbers. My mother has grown cucumbers before, in a small area in the yard, but I don’t remember picking them. If you don't understand, please explain it. This has only been sold in food markets in recent years. The price is not cheap and it is not often seen. Occasionally, if you encounter one, just join in a little bit. The preparation is quite simple. As for the taste, it is not as fragrant and sweet as the legend says. The actual taste is slightly astringent, but when you taste it carefully, it has the unique fragrance of cucumber. My husband said it was pretty good, but I thought it was just average. Fried or served with eggs, shrimps, minced garlic, or served cold, it can only be said to be more eye-catching. Hope is more valuable than anything else! What is rare always feels fresh!

Mixed Cucumber Flowers

The protagonist of today’s delicacy is the vegetable called cucumber flower by vegetable farmers, which is the cucumber with flowers, which is the small melon that comes down during the crop thinning time. The so-called thinning of crops is the process of removing excess seedlings after the seeds emerge. These young, cut-off cucumbers have a crisp and slightly bitter taste. Such fresh and tender ingredients are most delicious when stir-fried or cold, and their effect of clearing away heat and reducing internal heat is also quite good.
