RADSIHES WITH WHIPPED BUTTER AND SEA SALT.

radish (1)

This is a classic partnership but one many steer clear from. When radishes are fresh, crisp and fiery in flavour the creamy accompaniment of butter and salt all makes sense.

Serves 4 as an aperitif

Ingredients

20 fresh radishes, washed and if desired keep leaves on

4 Tbsp unsalted good quality butter, at room temperature

Generous pinch of sea salt flakes per person

Method

Wash the radishes and pat dry and chill in the fridge to keep crisp. Remove 10 minutes prior to eating.

Place the softened butter in suitable bowl and either whip by hand or beater until the butter becomes light and creamy in colour and texture. Place the whipped butter into suitable size dish or dishes.

To serve place the radishes onto a suitable platter, along with the softened whipped butter and sea salt flakes. Allow your guest to help themselves (I like to dip my radish in the butter and then in the salt) and simply enjoy!
