We hope you enjoy your visit to Mrs Crocombe's kitchen today! As always, here are the answers to some questions you may have, from historian Dr Annie Gray... Q: Cucumber: fruit or vegetable? A: Technically cucumbers are fruit, as are all members of the curcubit (gourd or squash) family. However, they are used like vegetables, so they tend to be called culinary vegetables. They are one of very few members of the family native to the old world: most others, including pumpkin and courgette/marrow were introduced to Europe following the Spanish invasion and subsequent colonisation of South and Central America. Q: Cooking cucumbers? What is this weirdness? A: Modern western European cuisine rarely involves cooked cucumbers, it’s true, although East Asian cookery sometimes does. However, when they were first introduced, they were viewed as being similar to the snake or bottle gourd, which was cooked, as were most vegetables and sometimes salad. Many people - though not all - distrusted raw fruit and vegetables, fearing that their cold, watery nature would interfere with good health. This was a time when galenic or humoral theory still held sway in medicine, and a cold, wet vegetable was believed to bring on cold, wet symptoms - runny noses, stomach upsets and the like. Cucumbers were routinely cooked right up to the twentieth century, though eating them raw became much more popular after the breeding of sweeter, crisper varieties in the nineteenth century - along with the demise of galenic theory. Q: Why do they need salting and draining? A: Older varieties of cucumbers could be quite bitter and very seedy. The eagle-eyed among you will have noticed that ours aren’t very seedy. That’s because we are using a modern variety: sadly the old types are very difficult to get hold of now. Q: Tell me more about stocks! A: Houses like Audley End would have had several types of stock ready to use, from delicate veal stock intended for the top table, to everyday stocks used mainly for gravy for the servants’ hall. The cheap ones were a good way to use bones and peelings, while the more elevated ones required meat to be bought specially. Q: What is arrowroot? A: Arrowroot is a starch obtained from various plants native to the Caribbean and Indonesia. There is an actual arrowroot plant, but several similar plants, including tapioca (cassava) were also used to make the white powder which Mrs Crocombe would have been familiar with. It was very popular in the Victorian period, both as a thickener for sauces and soups, and as an ingredient in biscuits. It makes for a glossy finish, which is visually more appealing than the cheaper alternative of cornflour (cornstarch). Long-time viewers will have hard about arrowroot before, as it's been used in numerous Victorian Way recipes. Q: What horror is this pigeon recipe Mrs Crocombe talks of? A: Elizabeth Raffald has a recipe for pigeon in which the pigeon is tunnel-boned and then stuffed into a large cucumber. It is fiendishly difficult, and unfortunately not right for 1881, or we may have tried it by now. Pigeon pie, on the other hand... kzitem.info/news/bejne/2adu2p5nrqtieqA

Except it is made with fermented cucumbers and not fresh. And when made with meat it's can be a bit on the heavier side. Fresh cucumbers are better suited for cold soups or chłodnik, like gazpacho, but then they are not cooked. I have always considered cucumber soup, with meat and plenty root vegetables, to be more of a lighter winter soup or for early autumn, since it's then when we have plenty cucumbers, fermented and preserved in jars and barrels.

I made this soup as per the recipe (except for the parsley garnish, because I didn't have any) and it was quite pleasant! The flavour profile is reminiscent of vegetable chowder, which makes sense. I used the tougher-skinned "field cucumbers" instead of English salad cucumbers. The little dash of cayenne is not enough to register as spicy, but definitely brightens the flavour; I wouldn't leave it out. Likewise, I found the sippets added a nice texture contrast to the puree. This soup is very amenable to cheese. I garnished mine with cheese curds, but literally any kind of grated cheese would be delicious. I also (in a very un-Victorian fashion) drizzled my soup with garlic oil.
