Cucumbers are nature’s twofer: Botanically, they’re a fruit, but their savoriness keeps them firmly in the vegetable category. Similarly, cukes can be a satiating food, but their water content is high enough to quench thirst. We’ve gathered 13 cucumber recipes that celebrate the dual nature of cukes.
