It's a carrot.
When you eat cucumbers and carrots together
Ascorbinase in carrots is said to destroy vitamin C in cucumbers.
But it's okay to heat it up with vinegar or oil.
Ascorbinase, an ingredient in cucumbers, carrots, eggplant, and pumpkins, is said to destroy vitamin C.
So it's better not to eat these vegetables raw with each other.
If you use it together, it is recommended to add vinegar in advance.
If you eat cucumbers and radishes together, an enzyme called ascorbinase in cucumbers destroys vitamin C.
However, ascorbinase is weak against acid, so when using radish and cucumber together, it is good to mix cucumber with vinegar first.
