The smooth rind is edible, thin, yellow, and is overlaid with hues of green and orange with intermittent stripes and spots. As the cucumber matures, the skin becomes a darker yellow, and the green patches grow smaller. The pale cream to white flesh is firm, watery, and crunchy with small, yellow, edible seeds encased in a slippery coating. The flesh also has a mild, sweet fragrance that is reminiscent of melon. Dosakai cucumbers can be consumed both raw and cooked. When raw, they have an opaque flesh that is semi-sour and tart with slightly bitter seeds. When cooked, the flesh becomes translucent and soft with a tangy, sweet flavor.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSeasons\/Availability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDosakai is available year-round, with peak season in the late fall through winter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCurrent Facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDosakai, botanically classified as Cucumis sativus, is a small yellow cucumber that is a member of the Cucurbitaceae family along with melons, squash, and gourds.
