If you enjoy radishes, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes.  If you are radish ambivalent, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes; if you are of the “not for me” opinion, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes.  Pan-roasting is a good alternative to oven roasting, especially in the hotter (no way am I turning on my oven) months. Medium high heat and just a light coating of oil or cooking spray is all that is needed.  In just a few minutes you will achieve browning as the natural sugars caramelize. After reducing the heat and allowing the radishes to soften, we finish this dish with creamy butter, savory garlic, and fresh thyme; the result is sublime. Roasting tames the heat and changes the texture to something akin to a potato without the starchiness. Don’t let the bite hold you back, if you can’t stand the heat, roast the radish!
