YSK that radishes are fucking amazing. They improve heart health and are full of Sulforaphene, a powerful anti-cancer substance. They contain almost no calories

    Fresh radishes are very tasty. I like them better as a planty snack than carrots.

    more than likely sulforaphene is more useful invivo studies rather than consumed, because the stomach acid will likely neutralize the effect the compound anyways.

    Also, depending on your local climate, you might be surprised how quick and easy it is to grow your own turnips. If you’re in a temperate northern hemisphere climate, good chance you can have fresh home grown turnips for 8+ months of the year, if not the whole year. They don’t take a lot of time to reach maturity, you can basically plant a small batch of seeds every few weeks to keep things going.

    Yes, they are delicious on their own, fresh cut in salads, and so on. You can roast/bake/cook them, and they take on a taste and texture similar to potatoes. You can soak them in a pickling brine (1:4 vinegar to water with a bit of salt) for a few hours minimum and that will also eliminate most of the “bite” if you don’t like that part of their flavor profile.

    You can eat the greens, too. Chop them up and saute. I don’t like radishes though. I wish I did. I worked a few summers on an Amish farm and radishes are fun to harvest.

    Tiny bit of butter and salt and I’m in heaven!

      the butter is undoing the idea of them being low-calorie, but you can use greek yoghurt with garlic and lime and seasoning as a dipping sauce you will have a far, far healthier snack.

    Thanks for the tip. Might incorporate them into some homemade fajitas or Chinese-style stir-fry.

    Toast, hummus, and microplaned radishes. Mmmm.

    If you don’t have a micro plane, get one!

    I fucking love radishes. I use them as a dip delivery device, along with celery, to cut out chip calories.
