Feggous is the Moroccan name for the Armenian cucumber, also known as snake cucumber, snake melon, yard-long cucumber, fakkous and uri. These long, thin cucumbers are mild, crispy, and don't need to be peeled or seeded - perfect for using in this refreshing Moroccan salad with orange flower water. The salad is especially good chilled. In addition to this salad, Moroccans eat feggous plain, sliced, salted, sweetened, or add them to chopped salads. Feggous is available in Morocco during summer months. Serves 4 as a starter, side or follow-up to a main dish.
