Cucumbers are transformed into candy-like bites in this unexpected dessert inspired by Eton mess, a British summer classic typically featuring layers of strawberries, broken meringue, and whipped cream. This homage swaps out the macerated berries for candied cucumbers, flavors the whipped cream with lime zest, and uses toasted almonds to provide the texture and bite typically provided by the crunchy meringue.
