Open-face Radish Sandwich
This year, I’ve finally joined a Community Sponsored Agriculture (CSA). In the past, I usually started my search for one to join a bit too late, and they’d all be full. This year, on the other hand, I was ultra-prepared. In fact, I was the first person of the year to join my CSA.
I’m splitting a half share with B, as we both want a steady flow of produce and want to try new things we wouldn’t otherwise give a second glance to. At the top of the list for me? Radishes. I haven’t tried them in years, but I remember not liking them when I was younger. Probably not all that surprising, considering the bite they have; children often don’t like stronger-tasting vegetables. However, I haven’t been a child in a really, really long time, so it was time to act like the adult I am, and try something (mostly) new. I recall that sliced radishes are often served on buttered bread, and a quick search of the Internet confirmed this memory.
So for lunch one day, I picked up a demi baguette, packed up the radishes and some microgreens (also from our CSA), and headed over to B’s for a lunch of open-face radish sandwiches.
