What is a "radish"?
The radish is a root vegetable characterized by its small, round or elongated shape and vibrant red, white, or purple skin. It has a crisp, crunchy texture and a refreshing peppery flavor that varies in intensity depending on the variety. Radishes are commonly eaten raw and can be sliced thinly and added to salads or used as a garnish. They can also be pickled, roasted, or sautéed, which can mellow their flavor and soften their texture. Radishes are low in calories and rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.
