My friend, Jennifer, introduced me to the lovely dish- Radishes with salt and softened butter.
I had no idea it was such a French dish but it's very yummy.
Some people cut a little wedge in the radish, put the butter in the wedge and drag the radish through the salt. (This seems a little labor intensive to me.)
Maybe Shaboom can weigh in on this one.
All I know is that I have discovered the radish. I have learned to admire it, taste it, and appreciate the delicate flavor.
This is my new dinner.
During the day I'm drinking carrot juice. It's like a sugary snack.
And this big boy. Wow. I cut it into fourths, steam it, and have one fourth a day for lunch.
I make a mayo with curry and cayenne. Mmmmm.
All this, a 2 mile walk, and I'm back on The French Skinny.
Bon Appétit.

ReplyDeleteMy mom used to tell us the story of celia the radish, it ends badly when a man pulls her out of her bathtub full of butter, dips her in salt and eats her.
