How to make the cucumber less bitter
Cut about 1 inch off the top of the cucumber in 1 clean cut with a sharp knife, and quickly rub the 2 exposed surfaces together in a circular motion. You will see white foams appearing. Wash away the foams. This will make the cucumber less bitter.
The scientific reason to this is that there are many very fine “veins” that runs along the length of the cucumber. Exposing one end and rubbing creates a capillary effect that draws the bitterness out along the length of the cucumber.
