Refreshing Flower Cucumber
1.
The cucumber is cleaned. (Try to choose tender cucumbers of uniform thickness. Old cucumbers will have fruit, which will affect the taste.)
2.
Scrape long thin slices with a flaker. (Slightly push down when scraping)
3.
After scraping, several pieces are superimposed.
4.
Use scissors to cut to one-half, evenly cut from left to right.
5.
Take two cut melon slices and roll them up from one end. Do not roll them too loosely.
6.
The end of the roll should be pressed tightly. (Thin melon slices are easy to stick to)
7.
Press the melon slices around, and the blooming cucumber flowers will be ready. Put them into the plate one by one.
8.
Sauce: Mashed garlic; 8 grams, 20 grams of white vinegar, 5 grams of light soy sauce, a little salt, 20 grams of boiled water, a few drops of sesame oil, mix and stir well.
9.
Add appropriate amount of chili oil. (If you don’t like spicy, you can ignore it)
10.
Pour the sauce into the cucumber flowers and slice the tomatoes around.

Tips:
1: Choose cucumbers with well-proportioned thickness and thorns. If the thorns on the cucumber skin are small and dense, and they will break when touched, this kind of cucumber will be more tender and delicious. Those cucumbers with large and sparse thorns do not have a cucumber taste. If there are no thorns, the cucumber is old.
2: Gusty-shaped melons with big belly, pointed head and thin neck are the cucumbers that are underdeveloped or have been stored for a long time and become old, and there are more cucumber seeds with big belly. If the melon strips and melons are wilted, they will be stored for a long time after picking.
3: Fresh green melons are tender melons, and yellow or nearly yellow melons are old melons. Don't be too big. Cucumbers that are too big are not delicious. Relatively small cucumbers are tender and taste better. Pinch the cucumber with your fingernails, it feels crisp and tender, and the cucumbers with moisture coming out are more tender.
4: Cucumbers with top flowers are not necessarily fresh, or they may be smeared with chemicals. In fact, in a normal mature cucumber, the top flower will fall off naturally, and the top flower will shrink and leave a scar. If the nodule protruding from the top of the cucumber looks like a small hat, it is obviously coated with gibberellin. Its typical feature is that there are obvious small bumps at the junction between the flower bone and the flower bud. The top of naturally growing cucumbers should be naturally streamlined. Do not buy cucumbers with obvious nodules on the top.
