In Doy’s garden
Log it in Doydum and a row of cabbages sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Cucumbers are crisp, cool and mostly water, sliced onto Turkish breakfast plates, diced into salads and grated into cacık. The small, thin-skinned Turkish ones are often eaten whole, like an apple, with a pinch of salt.
Cucumber itself adds very little, so the dips, dressings and cheese alongside matter far more.
Snap it instead of weighing it
Take a photo of your plate and Doydum estimates each item’s grams, calories and macros. You check it and fix anything before it is saved.
