In summer you always want to eat as many seasonal vegetables as possible.
And although cucumbers grown in your own garden are considered the healthiest, not everyone has this opportunity.
Let's figure out what to do with store-bought cucumbers so that they don't harm your body.
How to get rid of nitrates in vegetables
When buying cucumbers at the market or in the store, we cannot guarantee that the fruits were grown without the use of pesticides.
Therefore, it is better to be on the safe side and treat cucumbers before eating.
For this purpose, it is recommended to peel the fruits, since it is in the peel that nitrates are deposited. Therefore, it is more useful to eat vegetables without the peel than with it.
You can do this with all vegetables whose quality you doubt, including zucchini, pumpkin and other fruits bought at the market or in the store.
This way you can be absolutely sure that no substances that are dangerous to your body will enter it.
