West Indian Burr Gherkin
Cucumis anguria
This rare and unusual cucumber originated from West Africa and is now grown in many countries worldwide. The vines are rampant and highly productive, producing masses of small 2" (5cm), oval, spiked cucumbers that have a unique and refreshing flavor, with a lovely crisp bite. Used young and whole, they are a delicious and unique addition to a salad. As they mature, the spikes and skin become a little tough and they fruit requires peeling, although the flavor of the flesh does improve with maturity.
