Cucumber may occasionally contain a group of natural toxins known as cucurbitacins. These toxins give cucumber a bitter taste. We would recommend that you should practice this tip on a daily basis while using cucumbers. How to get rid of this bitterness?
- Rubbing the ends is one of the most popular and commonly used methods to remove the bitterness of cucumber.
- All you need to do is thinly cut off the last parts from both ends of the cucumber.
- With that piece rub the end of the cucumber in a circular motion.
- Rub it for a few minutes against the other part until a white froth like substance comes out.
- This helps in releasing cucurbitacins & decreases the bitterness.
