Not sure what to do with turnips, but let's fix this radish situation right now.
Radishes are awesome! I like to eat them raw with just a bit of salt, but for a general cooking frame of reference, you can use radishes anywhere you would use a cucumber.
Here's some salads I like to make with radishes:
========================
= default radish salad =
========================
* radishes (thin round slices)
* chopped scallions
* dill (a lot)
* salt
* pepper
* olive oil
* chopped fresh parsley (optional)
From here you have a few options:
1. just add some vinegar and/or a bit of lemon
2. for a tzatziki-like route, use lemon, garlic and greek yogurt. Cucumbers are totally optional here (the salad becomes more watery).
========================
= poor-man's cole slaw =
========================
* cole slaw without the mayo
* add thinly sliced radishes
=======================================
= tomato salad loaded with vegetables =
=======================================
* thick sliced tomatoes (1/2 inch cubes or pyramid-like shape)
* onions
* sliced cucumbers
* diced red bell pepper
* thinly sliced or diced radishes
* olive oil
* salt
* pepper
* half a dozen kalamata/black olives
* greek feta sliced into 1 inch cubes
* chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Dip sourdough bread into the tomato juice at the bottom to get to heaven.
- vram22 5y agoThat last salad recipe seems mouth-watering. Ugh (speaking to myself). I must make salads more often. So fast and easy too.
