FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The cool cucumber

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The cool cucumber : Give those expensive vitamin pills a pass, (who really knows what’s in them anyway?), and opt for a completely natural boost instead, one that is instantly refreshing and takes only a second to prepare — a crisp, fresh cucumber.

A single, medium-sized cucumber, peeled and zapped through a juicer, provides a glass of calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous plus vitamins C, B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6 along with folic acid, enough to meet your daily requirements of these essentials all at one go.

Adding things like a couple of tomatoes, two or three carrots and a squeeze of lemon or orange juice to the mix provides additional healthy elements to what is a highly nutritious and satisfying drink which, unlike some of the pre-packaged stuff, tastes absolutely sublime.

Cucumbers, such an easily available vegetable, are pretty much taken for granted as a salad ingredient but, aside from drinking them as high-energy juice, they have lots of other, usually overlooked, uses too.

These extremely low calorie vegetables are excellent diet material as, which is often the case, when you get a craving for ‘munchies’, snack on a cucumber and you will feel both energised and, more importantly, full until meal time comes around.

Some people complain that munching cucumber gives them gas so they avoid eating them when all that needs to be done is to sprinkle a little freshly chopped green mint on the slices and the problem disappears before it happens. ‘Gone with the wind’ so to say!

Native to tropical Africa and Asia, cucumbers, botanically called ‘Cucumis sativus’, have been cultivated for their culinary, medicinal and cosmetic properties for literally thousands of years and are known to be excellent for cooling overheated bodies when used either internally or externally.When eaten or drunk, cucumbers help in promoting clear skin, relieve heat rashes and having diuretic properties are regarded as best for clearing out and toning the entire system.

Their external uses, when not pulverised in chemically adulterated lotions, potions and other concoctions, include treatment of burns, sunburn relief, for easing sore eyes and clearing up conjunctivitis and yet, few people appear to know that cucumber slices are also handy for household use such as polishing shoes to a waterproof gloss, ‘oiling’ hinges, cleaning kitchen surfaces, including stainless steel sinks and ceramic tiles and even, unlikely as it might sound, for cleaning windows, mirrors and other glass surfaces without leaving those notorious streaks behind.

Fresh cucumber should be served after, rather than before, meals as it is a rapid acting breath freshener, the natural photo-chemicals they contain, knocking out bacteria which can cause halitosis and send even your best friend in furious retreat.

Treating your face to an invigorating, fresh cucumber rub, cleans the skin to perfection and, if cucumber juice is dabbed around the eyes and mouth and anywhere else that those dreaded wrinkles are trying to materialise, they will actually tighten up and almost disappear for a few hours at a time which can’t be at all bad!

This versatile vegetable, in the market all the year round thanks to our extremely varied climatic and growing conditions, is also neither difficult nor space demanding, unless you want to cultivate mountains of them of course, to cultivate at home.

In Karachi conditions, cucumber seed can generally be sown anytime between October and the end of April with crops taking from 90 to approximately 150 days to mature according to the variety… of which there are lots. Cucumbers can be large, small, long, short, tapered, oval, round and even curly. They can be pale green, mid-green, dark green, green and white striped, bright orange, blazing yellow, lemon yellow or even pure, unadulterated other than by small thorns, white.

Cucumber seed is best sown ‘on edge’; meaning on its side rather than simply flat out, in sandy or otherwise well-drained soil with lots of organic manure/compost worked in. Seeds should be sown half an inch to one inch deep depending on the size and, depending on the variety i.e. climbing, trailing or bush, at a distance of one to three feet apart. Some people prefer to grow cucumbers on raised ridges of soil, irrigating in the channel between, but this is not necessary plus, they are very much at home when grown in large, 16-24 inch, clay pots, one plant per pot. Watering is important at all stages of growth.

And, once your crop is ripe for the picking, you can juice them, inventing your own mix and match recipes in the process, eat them on their own, use them in salads, cook them in garlic and yoghurt, fry them, bake them, clean the kitchen and bathro
