Ingredients

Cucumber Crisp

1. Pick cucumbers. There are many types of cucumbers. In the north, cucumbers are also called "cucumbers", but the "cucumbers" mentioned here do not mean "cucumbers". Cucumbers here are white when they are immature and yellow when they are mature. Instead of the green one, choose the tender yellow cucumber to make the melon skin, which tastes better.

3. Boil the cucumbers. In fact, cooking is worse than soaking. This step pays more attention to the water temperature, and it is generally appropriate to use bubbling water. After the water in the pot starts to bubble, put the cucumbers in and soak, do not stop the fire, wait for the water in the pot to clear, then start the pot (take it out in about 10 minutes).
