Functional Foods Highlight

Radish: Radishes are a good source of vitamin C. Just 1 cup contains almost 30% of you daily value!

This dish is all about the Radish! These beautiful little gems are crunchy, spicy and a little sweet and if you haven’t worked with them before I strongly suggest you try them. You can roast them, braise them or eat them raw with butter (gotta love the French!) I love using them in salads as a garnish to add an extra crisp bite, but in this case they are the salad. Accompanied with your favorite fish, this dish celebrates every bit of the radish.
