I have plans for my row of Russian Salad Rose radishes - this butter sounds like just the ticket. From Food & Drink - A weekly guide to enjoying eating from the Tribune. Ingredients:
6 radishes (french breakfast or a mixture of red, purple and pink radishes) |
4 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 teaspoon lemon zest, finely grated |
sea salt |
Directions:
1. Wash and trim the radishes. If the leaves are tender and fresh, set a dozen or so aside, stems removed.
2. Slice the radishes into rounds, then crosswise into narrow strips. Each should be tipped with color.
3. Chop the leaves; you should have about 1/2 cup.
4. Mix the butter and lemon zest until the mixture is soft, then stir in chopped radishes, leaves and salt to taste.
5. Spread on slices of crusty baguette and serve.
