Radishes are just one of my favorites - I used to dislike them for their bitterness - but they grew on me over the years. In France, I kinda fell in love with them. The French serve them on little toast points with a layer of butter, thinly sliced radishes and a pinch of salt. Something about this combination is remarkable. The butter smoothes out the tartness of the radish and the salt just gives it a kick. Try any toast point combination - pesto, goat cheese, layer with cucumbers, whatever!
In a salad radishes go well with ranch, bluecheese, cucumbers, peas, croutons, red onions.
Braise them. Try to sautee them in white wine and olive oil & butter with sweet onions and leeks for a great side dish or even over quinoa or pasta.
And yes...you can eat the greens too! They are just like salad greens - put them in your salad, or sautee.
Juicing the greens are also a great idea!
Happy Radish Eating!
