Veggie Resolution #12: Radishes
Happy Monday, Noshers! How was your weekend? Mine included some frozen yogurt, trying out some new veggies, and teaching my older sister how to ride a bike (I didn’t realize that she had never learned and was wondering why it didn’t come back to her, like, you know “riding a bike”). I thought I’d ease into the week with a simple Veggie Resolution post – radishes!
I find radishes, like beets, particularly satisfying whenever they show up in my CSA pick-up. With the abundance of leaves and dirt still hanging onto the roots, I really feel the earthiness of these veggies – well, as much as a city girl can feel earthiness I guess 
.
I enjoyed my recent radish bounty simply – thinly sliced on buttered baguette with a sprinkle of sea salt. The veggies were crispy, spicy and refreshing – perfect for summer! Yuuuum!! 
(and really, how can one go wrong with butter?)
How do you prepare radishes?
That looks delicious! I never thought to eat it like that.
1I usually just eat radishes plain, sprinkled with salt. I’ve heard you can roast them, i’d love to try it sometime!
2Ooh, that DOES sound good!
3I totally dig radishes! I’ll usually put them on salads, or in soups for a little sharp crispness to the soup–don’t cook them down too much!
They’re also good in salsas & bruschetta!
4I’ll admit that I usually push the radishes off my side salad but yours look so pretty! Maybe I’ll give them another try.
5Yum! I never thought of preparing radishes this way. I usually just slice them up and toss them into a salad. Thanks for the idea!
6Mmm… radishes! I’m like Latte, usually munch on them whole with a salty sprinkle. {My grandma used to grow them + ALWAYS served them at dinner as part of the relish tray.}
I’ve heard of folks baking radish chips + dusting them with cinnamon sugar. Haven’t yet tried them that way, though.
7Yum!! That looks so delicious. I’m impressed that we’re up to #12!!
8Those radishes look delish, Serena! I think radishes have become one of my new favorites
9Radishes are so great, but I can’t keep them around the house — I just eat them all! Simply sliced with salt is my favorite.
10I’ve never had radishes in such a simple way! Sliced? On toast? YUM.
11I love simple food – nothing is better than enjoying something as yummy as radishes unadorned
12Your fabulous photos probably help with that appeal too! YUMMY
That’s very healthy. I love salad but have not thought of these little radishes. I must go and get some to add to my salad. Thanks very much for sharing.
13I’ve never really been a fan, but you make them sound so much better than I remember!
14Radishes are so pretty, but I’ve never been able to get over the taste!
