I like them shredded added to coleslaw for extra zip.

I like them and have them in my salad daily...not just for flavor but for color too.

We love radishes here, always have some in the fridge year round!

Love radishes. A Cheezit and half a radish all in the same bite for me is my fav. I will definitely be trying a bread and butter radish sandwich! What a great idea!

I've always enjoyed fresh radishes with a sprinkle of salt. Like an appetizer with dinner.

We always have radishes on hand. I'm fine with them, although not my favorite. DH loves them, just the way vicsgirl says. I used to work with a girl who sprinkled seasoned salt on them. She kept a jar of seasoned salt in the desk drawer for lunches.

Love them too. Always have them in my home-made salads...don't find them always in restaurant salads. Wonder why?

I have always had radishes since I was little. My dad liked them, so use to grow them every year. I have grown all different kinds, but I was the only one who ate them. DH doesn't like them, too bitter. DS says they taste like dirt. I love to snack on them with just little bit of salt.

Radish varieties

Love radishes. Wish we could get the type radishes that are served in France for breakfast. They were short and delicious.

One of my former employees loved radishes so much, he ate them like popcorn.

Wow, I'm surprised at the number of people who like radishes! We always had them growing up and mom even grew them for a few years. We only ever had them in salads. But to me they have no taste! So I haven't eaten them since I was a kid. I've never heard of eating them in any other way except for in salads.

I like them plain, just sliced into bite sized pieces. A very zingy bite!

When I was little my Dad loved radish sandwiches, the white icicle variety. Today I only eat the small red round ones in salads, forgot about how good a radish and a slice of butter bread can be.

I love to snack on them especially if they have a bit of heat to them. Just the radish and a bit of salt. When I make salad, there radishes are always included.

What I like even better are cucumbers. I have half a cucumber cut into spears as part of my breakfast every morning. Also good are cucumber sandwiches - made just like the radish sandwich but use cucumbers instead.

Another radish lover here! They've been a favorite for as long as I can remember. My mother always had a short row or 2 in the garden of round red radishes, and long white ones, planted mainly, I think, for my Dad and me. I don't remember my Mom eating them very often. I'm kind of surprised at Casey's comment that they have no taste. I think they are very flavorful. Have occasionally gotten hold of some that were way too hot!

I'd never heard of a radish sandwich until a few years ago, read about it on the cooking forum, tried it and loved it!

I also make slaw from them, just shredded radishes, with a bit of creamy slaw dressing on them. My favorite way to eat them is sliced almost paper thin, a very light sprinkling of salt, let them sit until they are all wilted, then eat. Very seldom indulge in that anymore, I'm supposed to be on a low sodium diet. Most of the time I am, but occasionally lapse for a special treat. They are also very good in a batch of roasted mixed root vegetables. And in vegetable beef soup, sometimes in beef stew. . . . .

Can you tell I REALLY like radishes? ? ?

All of you radish lovers need to be introduced to the Rat's Tail Radish! It's a "cousin" to the typical radish....same genus, different species....and is sooooo wonderful.

It produces in the heat of the summer and the edible pods are great raw, cooked, and pickled. I grow mine on tomato cages, making sure we harvest while the pods are still small. The flowers are very pretty in a salad, too, The bees and butterflies are crazy about the flowers, too.

My much loved Korean neighbor (RIP) introduced me to them several years ago as an ingredient in her sushi rolls and now I am the one growing them every year!

The pods are crunchy and mildly hot like their in-ground cousins.

Many years ago I had a memorable sandwich in NYC - a fresh bagel with a cream cheese spread made with chopped radishes and minced green onions. I've been making it ever since, not always on a bagel. Good spread for crackers and thin dark rye cocktail bread, also with raw veggie dippers.

Oh my! My husband planted a very long row of radishes along our garden edge and we have tons of them. I had never heard of a radish sandwich! I will tell him about that and see if he'll try it. I'm not a huge radish fan but will include some in a salad.

Seagrass your spread sounds good!

I never liked radishes. To me they taste bitter.

Radishes with butter and salt are one of my favorite snacks. I also like radishes in open-fced sandwiches with butter and salt and I can't wit to try seagrass's version, my mouth waters at the thought! Thank you for this delicious thread!

Love them, and cucumbers. Have about four cups of each diced up to throw in salads or just to serve with dip or dressing throughout the week.

I have been using radishes sliced, lightly salted as a low calorie snack. I slice 4 or 5 medium radishes and dip them in a 100 calorie serving of gucamole. Keep both on hand for easy snacking. Would really love the radish, butter and good bread sandwich. But need to to skip the carbs as much as possible.

Growing up we always had radishes on the table during the summer, with green onions and sliced tomatoes.

Mother used to occasionally make radish flowers.

Nope. Not fond of them.

I remember ''radish flowers" glenda_al. Always made the relish tray so festive through the eyes of this midwestern kid! I grew up eating radishes. They were a staple in my parent's effort to hook their kids into gardening. Radishes, carrots, marigolds, lettuce, chard, spinach...so important for kids to know where their food comes from.

I like daikon. It's milder than red radishes.

I like the milder radishes, not the "hot" ones. Love some of the ideas here. Never thought of a radish sandwich. They sound like a great addition to cole slaw which can be blah.

Big radish fan here. Grew up with them and we grew them at home when we would have a garden. Discovered if you grew them next to the green onions the radishes would be hotter. I like them "regular" and with the hot kick but I just love the crunch. Give me a salt shaker and a bowl of radishes and I have a great snack. I put them in my coleslaw and potato salad too. Adds a nice crunch to the potato salad.

Yes. I grew up eating them with butter. Definitely going to try Seagrass's bagel spread.

I've always loved radishes - used to eat them out of my hand with salt as a child. And a radish sandwich with good bread and butter is a favorite. Unfortunately, my GERD no longer allows me this indulgence. Bummer...

I love radishes, especially when they are cold and spicy hot. I eat them on their own, put them in salads, love them sliced in tuna salad or chicken salad. I also love horseradish, put a dab in salads I make with mayo. I used to grow them in containers. I remember my Dad buying them every week when he went grocery shopping and in the winter they came in a plastic bag. My Dad had a name for radishes but I can't remember what it was - something strawberry. I even cooked little tiny radishes in butter once along with their tops. So good.

We love radishes sliced or whole and also added to tossed salads. egg or tuna salad, potato salad and coleslaw. When there's an abundance from the garden we often have it lightly steamed with butter or roasted briefly with other vegetables. On Sunday morning dh often makes omelet topped with thinly sliced radishes, a family favorite.

Roasted--with olive oil and kosher salt! Yummy yummy in my tummy.

I still have a little space in my garden and happen to have some seeds. Haven't grown them in years but after reading this thread, I'm on it! Thank you!
