Instructions
- Prepare the cucumber: Wash cucumbers and slice them lengthwise into thin strips using a vegetable peeler or mandoline.
- Lay cucumber strips on a paper towel and gently pat dry to remove excess moisture.

- Mix until creamy and well combined. Fold in crushed nuts or seeds if using.

- Secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate for 15–20 minutes before serving for the best texture.
Notes
Use English cucumbers for longer, sturdier rolls. These can be prepared a few hours ahead and stored chilled. Add avocado, herbs, or shredded cheese for extra flavor.
