What do roasted radishes taste like?

They're pretty mild and are not as peppery as raw radishes. The roasting mellows them out and so they go great with a lot of different main dishes.

Do you peel radishes before cooking?

Nope! You don't need to peel them. Just wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt.

What can you use radish greens for?

You can use the greens like lettuce and add them to salads or use them on sandwiches. You can also use them to make pesto - use my beet tops pesto as a guide and just swap the beet greens for the radish greens.
