Radish Salat

[bunnyjadwiga.livejournal.com]

Radishes, sliced, dressed with olive oil, vinegar and salt.

Rumpolt, bless him, gives you two versions, so you can poach/blanch them in a little water if they are too sharp:

44.Take radish (/ and cut it small/ broad and thin/ poach it in water/ cool it / season it with oil/ vinegar and salt. You may sprinkle it with sugar or not.

45. Or take a radish/ cut in small and thin/ or fine diced/
season it with vinegar/ oil and salt/ so it is good oo.

Translation by Gwen Cat

I made this first on a whim and discovered that it is startlingly addicting-- we went through nearly a whole daikon during prep for Seder this year. The key is enough salt. :)

Thank You

We shall be trying this shortly, and shall let you know how well it works...our dread Baron is not much of one for veggies, but perchance we could sneak it onto the tables anyway!
