Persia doesnt have an exclusive on the OTHER kind...i grew up with them being called ENGLISH... and Asia is kinda close to Persia true?
we always called the pickle type a "straight eight"...
Inside looks like this with no seeds
This is an English cucumber

in all fairness, its not like the English really have anything great to lay claim to with regard to food... Lets let the English have their claim on the GOOD cucumbers... 
Well, they DO grow some good beef BUT they just don't know what the hell to do with it after they raise them...-In a Republic, the sovereignty resides with the people themselves. In a Republic, the government is a servant of the people, and obliged to its owner, We the People..

I promise not to beat you with a Persian Cucumber, but in all fairness the Japanese cucumber is probably best used as a weapon. Originally Posted by 2manymustangs

my friend/worker in Guadalajara told me to use a food processor for the peppers BUT I decided to strip out the seeds/membranes by HAND and mince them by hand... it took nearly FOUR hours for my hands to stop burning... Originally Posted by djunkie

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk All because i didnt want to get my food processor dirty
I did like the coarse chop on most of the veggies for cracker dipping but I didn't like the feeling on my hands all afternoon/evening... Next time, FOOD PROCESSOR!!!
I had some friends try it last night and one of the guys said it was the best "salsa type of dip" that he has ever had...
I did 3 serano peppers minus membranes/seeds, 1 1/2 lbs of shrimp, juice from 2 small lemons, 1 medium sweet onion, 1 LARGE PERSIAN cuke , 1 tsp tri blend, 1 tspn soy sauce (add more to taste at the end), one bunch of cillantro tops minced...
Adjustments, i would coarse chop the shrimp next time (for a more even distribution), add more cucumber and up the amount of onion, THEN season to taste with the soy sauce/tri blend (garlic/salt/pepper)-In a Republic, the sovereignty resides with the people themselves.
