Grown in greenhouses and available year-round, hot house cucumbers--also known as English cucumbers or European cucumbers--have thinner skins than traditional field-grown varieties and are unwaxed, so do not require peeling. They are also sweeter, have almost no seeds, and are believed to be easier to digest (which is why they are sometimes called burpless). To preserve the texture and water weight, hot house cucumbers are shrink-wrapped in plastic wrap. To prevent chill injury, do not store below 42 degrees Fahrenheit. Show more
