Oh this sounds absolutely delightful.
Deez
I don’t normally like cucumbers except in dishes like tabbouli and falafel wraps, but I might give this a try. It looks delicious.
Tutti fermi. Ma sei abruzzese? Io sono di Pescara e suono il liuto medievale rinascimentale e barocco ti seguo dagli esordi. Potremmo fare grandi cose a tema insieme!!
Yummy !!!
Yummy and tasty new friend
You mention that this cucumber is actually a melon? Are you able to eat the skin or did you have to scoop the flesh and filling out?
Fantastic recipe
