This recipe is from a London, England farmer's market. Ingredients:
1 large bunch of whole radish |
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts or 1/2 cup toasted almond |
2 garlic cloves |
2 tablespoons white miso |
1/8 teaspoon sea salt |
fresh ground black pepper, to taste |
extra virgin olive oil |
squeeze lemon |
Directions:
1. Prepare the radishes, separate tops from bottoms. Chop the bottoms into equal-sized pieces, halved or quartered if large. Wash the tops to remove any dirt from the leaves and roughly chop.
2. For the seared radishes, heat some oil over medium-high heat, and when just sizzling, add the radishes cut-side down. Season, and sear until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other sides.
3. For the pesto, combine all the remaining ingredients except lemon in a mortar and pestle, or a food processor, adding the evoo as you go, enough to make a smooth paste. Finish with a squeeze of lemon. This will keep in the fridge for a couple of days if submerged under oil.
4. Serve pesto drizzled over seared radishes.
