slicing cucumbers
Knife through vegetables
Slicing cucumbers are the common supermarket variety, bred for eating fresh rather than pickling.
They're larger than pickling cucumbers, with thicker skin and fewer seeds: I picked up some slicing cucumbers for the salad.
The distinction matters mainly to gardeners and grocers—most people just call them cucumbers.
