Old Cucumber 老黄瓜 / Lou Wong Gua (1 pc)
Product Description
Unlike regular cucumbers, old cucumber (老黄瓜, lou wong gua) is left to mature on the vine, developing a thicker skin and firmer flesh that holds up beautifully through long cooking.
A staple of Cantonese soups and traditionally enjoyed as a "cooling" soup in our warm climate, it releases a gentle sweetness when slow-simmered. Pair with pork ribs, chicken, dried scallops, red dates, goji berries and corn. Leave the skin on to keep the flesh intact, and remove the seeds for a cleaner broth.
Origin: Vietnam
Pack: 1 pc
