Pepino - Cucumber! Oh, how to imagine Mexican cuisine without this tasty, healthy and ancient veggie. It has been with us for more than 3,000 years, native to India, then spread all over the world by trades and explorers. Introduced to North America and Caribbean by Columbus. Same family of watermelon, melons, squash. In Mexico is more than indispensable for aguachile, agua fresca de pepino con limón, salads or just as snack for kids and not so kids with chili powder and salt.
