Apple cucumbers are like a short, stumpy and rounded version of a regular cucumber. It resembles more like a small oblong melon with its light yellow to green coloured skin. It has rounded edges and feels dense to hold. It has a light to white coloured flesh and is quite seedy. It is refreshing, has a mildly sweet flavour and crisp like an apple. You eat apple cucumbers as you would a regular cucumber or even it whole like an apple!
