Radishes

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Bitter

    Step 1

    Roasting makes radishes sweeter. Toss them with oil and roast at 425°F for 30 to 45 minutes, or until tender and starting to brown.

  2. Too many

    Step 2

    See “Bitter,” above, for a fine suggestion on how to use up some of your radishes.

  3. Wilted, soft, soggy

    Step 3

    Soak them in ice water for 2 to 3 hours. If you like, add 1 tablespoon vinegar or the juice of one lemon to the water.
