Baby cucumbers, also known as Persian cucumbers, are small, crisp, and refreshing vegetables that originated in the Middle East. Known for their thin, edible skin and virtually seedless interior, they offer a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Packed with hydration, baby cucumbers are over 95% water, making them an excellent choice for supporting hydration and skin health. Nutritionally, they are low in calories and carbohydrates, while providing essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin K, potassium, and magnesium. They are also a good source of antioxidants, including beta-carotene, which supports immune health. Often used in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and global cuisines, baby cucumbers are a versatile ingredient in salads, dips like tzatziki, or as a simple, crunchy snack. With no saturated fats or cholesterol, they make a heart-healthy addition to any diet; however, pairing them with high-sodium dressings or dips should be moderated for optimal health benefits.
