The cucumber is a true all-rounder in your ingredient line-up. Botanically speaking, the cucumber is a fruit, from the same family as squash and melon, but it is prepared in a myriad of savoury ways. It not only tastes good raw – in salads, side dishes and cold soups –  but is also wonderful in smoothies and even cocktails.

There's more to cucumber's appeal than just its mild, refreshing taste. It has a high water content, meaning it can relieve dehydration on those hot summer days. As a bonus it is also low in calories, fat and cholesterol.

We've combed through the Falstaff archives to bring you the most refreshing cucumber recipes for the perfect summer meal or cocktail party.
