Questions you never knew you wanted the answers to until I finally got bored enough to ask them. It was 2020, and Lonita's kitchen called...
I love radishes. I love that bitterness and the strong flavour. But we always eat them raw. I have never in my life seen a cooked radish - until now.
This has perturbed me for years, decades. I have finally done something about it. I boiled two for just under 10 minutes. Two because just in case I liked the first one I had another to have right off. The rest are in the fridge safe and still raw.
The boiled water started turning green, the radishes started turning not red.
They felt like eating any root vegetable that wasn't boiled too mush. The strong bitterness is gone, but there is a flavour, though not a particularly strong one. They aren't bad.
