Cucumber is one of the most popular vegetables in Belgium and is available from February to November. It’s often used to add a refreshing touch to dishes — in a salad or on a sandwich, for example. Cucumbers are made up of 95% water, making them super hydrating and perfect for beating the heat on warm summer days. They were already popular in ancient Egypt — Queen Cleopatra herself believed cucumbers were the secret to her beauty. So if you want to look good, no need to suffer — just eat cucumbers!
