a sudden bounty

Internet, I have a garden problem.

Okay, I actually have several garden problems, things like “will my tomatoes survive being transplanted outside?” and “ow, the spines on those leaves really are a skin irritant, aren’t they?” but I have one garden problem that’s exciting.

Radishes.

photo(5) I pulled these guys out today and there are at least two or three times as many still in the dirt in various stages of readiness. And the question is, now what? I failed somehow to lay in a steady supply of radish recipes at planting time, and one can only thinly slice so many of the little monsters into salads. Anyone have suggestions for how I might tame the beasts?

    Radish jelly?

    Radish top soup?

    Sauteed radishes?

    I haven’t tried any of these, but they looked the most interesting and/or tasty. And wow, I had no idea radishes were so versatile….

    • I know! I mostly thought of them as a thing you slice thinly for salad use. Good thing other people have also had this problem. XD

      I put some of them in a quick brine this afternoon to do a refrigerator pickle, but I still have a bunch left. Think I’m going to try that sautee recipe, yum. :3
