The European cucumber (also known as English cucumber[1][2]) is a variety of "seedless" cucumber that is longer and slimmer than other varieties.
It does not have a layer of wax on it, and the skin is tender when ripe.[3][4]
These cucumbers may come wrapped in plastic for longer shelf life and better freshness. As a seedless variety, they do not have to be seeded or peeled before consuming.[1][5]
Often used in salads and for pickling,[1][2] European cucumbers can be more expensive and less flavorful than some other types of cucumber.[5]
