Radish
The radish is an edible root vegetable closely related to mustard. It has crunchy white flesh surrounded by crimson skin and a peppery flavour.

Is it good for me?
Radish is a source of vitamin C.
Buying and storing
Select radishes with smooth skin that are free from splits or brown patches. Remove the leaves and store in the fridge for up to one week.
Preparation
Trim off the leaves and the root, then wash in cool water. Slice as desired.
Cooking tips
- Add thinly sliced radish to a classic garden salad for a bit of zing.
- Coarsely grate and toss with grated carrot, shredded green cabbage and mayonnaise for a coleslaw with bite.
