These crisp, peppery roots thrive in springtime and offer a welcome flash of color to salads, sandwiches, and grains. We love them with a little butter and salt, but we also love the way they complement anchovies, pecans, and even mushrooms. Pick up a bunch at your farmers' market today, and enjoy a week's worth of brilliant radish recipes.

One of our Twitter followers suggested making radish leaf pesto or using radish seeds in crackers. We still have a lot to experiment with!

Love this round-up! I didn't develop an appreciation for radishes until I started gardening. Now I cherish them as the first vegetable I harvest in the spring. Their bright color and peppery flavor is so fun to cook with, and I also love early radish leaves in salads.
