[…] turnips. They are a bit pungent because they are related to arugula and the radish. I told you my radish story here and how I learned to love them once I understood them. Turnips are not bland, but flavorful and […]

I loved radishes and a kid, and still do. They were always in my Mom’s everyday green salads along with mushrooms, green onions and chopped parsley. I mostly encounter radishes (or rabanitos, as they’re known in Spanish) in our local Mexican restaurants. I should say, in the AUTHENTIC Mexican restaurants. And they are found at the Salsa Bar, along with lime wedges, pickled carrots and jalapenos (escabeche). They are sprinkled atop the rich, red chile and pork soup, Pozole, and on just about any heavy, meaty dish to achieve just what you described…a fresh, lively zing.

But your recipes, and have never seen! They look wonderful! I love how you showcase and celebrate the simplest, humble veggie and make it gourmet! Thanks, girl!

Intead of ceating popcorn in front of the TV, I used to wash the radishes and salt them up and just enjoy them one by one….

I think radishes are a very adult taste..I do not know many children who “relish a radish”. They, like many foods, are not really appreciated until later in life. I really don’t remember being served radishes when I was a child. I must have been and shut it out of my mind! Now, like you, I love them. Sandwiches are spiced up with sliced radishes, sauteed in olive oil & sprinkled with sea salt and pickled with red onions are some of my favorites. I like so much what you have done with your radishes. Many more ideas to try Angela.

I am just like you! Thought I didn’t like radishes until I learned I could roast them. Super delicious!

I forgot you could cook/roast radishes! Thanks for the reminder. I am craving vegies lately and it is tooooo cold at the moment for salad. (I made lettuce soup last week) 🙂

I just recently started to develop a greater appreciation for the humble radish, and when we actually grew some last summer I ate an awful lot of them. Picked straight out of the ground on a warm summer morning, & given a quick rinse under the garden tap, they are hard to beat. They certainly found their way into a lot of my salads last summer – I’m guessing this coming summer will be no different.

I just recently started appreciating radish – but only in their naked (raw) form. I love all the suggestions you presented here. I will be expanding the repertoire!
