The Tanja salad cucumber from REINSAAT is the perfect choice for your garden, whether grown outdoors or under cover. This high-yielding, mixed-flowering variety produces slender, dark-green fruits measuring around 25 to 30 cm in length. Particularly noteworthy is its completely bitter-free flavour, which makes it ideal for fresh salads, snacks or as an accompaniment to various dishes.
When growing the Tanja cucumber, plant the seedlings in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Make sure to water the plants regularly to encourage optimal growth. Growing them under polytunnel or in a greenhouse can extend the harvest period and improve fruit quality. The cucumbers are particularly delicious when harvested young, as they have a small seed centre and firm, aromatic flesh.
A simple and tasty way to prepare them is in a cucumber salad: Slice the fresh cucumbers thinly, then add a little olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. This makes a refreshing side dish that’s ideal with barbecued food or as a light snack. These flavourful cucumbers also work brilliantly as an ingredient in sandwiches or wraps.
Thanks to its non-GM breeding, you can be sure you’re growing a high-quality and healthy product. With the Tanja cucumber, you’re investing in a variety that impresses not only with its excellent flavour, but also with its high yield and hardiness. See for yourself the quality of this cucumber and enrich your cooking with fresh, home-grown ingredients.
