When we were putting together a vegetable tray for a Christmas party, they were already gone and they weren't around this year. They would have made such a lovely offering on it. But they are so tasty, particularly when used to scoop up some hummus! I've never tried steaming them (I think I've tried that with every other vegetable known to mankind); I'll add that to my list!

They have a little more water than potatoes, so they don't get quite as crispy, but they do caramelize a bit. People who eat dairy products should definitely cook them in butter rather than oil, because cooked radishes and butter are made for each other. Actually, raw radishes are nice with soft butter, too, and plenty of good salt.

Good to know they are good for you too! They are a great addition to salads. I love the pepperiness (is that a word!) of radishes. Good to know they are good for you too!
