KOCHI SPECIALS
Japanese cucumbers are smaller and thinner than most international varieties, with deep green, glossy skin and small, edible seeds. Cucumbers grown in Kochi are crisp and juicy, with a light, sweet taste. They are popularly eaten raw in salads, and on sushi, dipped in miso paste, or lightly pickled in vinegar or citrus juice. Japanese cucumbers grow in fields and greenhouses all year.
