A watermelon and a daikon radish had a baby…and that baby grew up fabulous! 😍

A watermelon and a daikon radish had a baby… and that baby grew up fabulous! 😍 Meet the watermelon radish. Last week I mentioned the new Public Market in Redding and how we grabbed those tiny eggplants and a watermelon radish. Have you ever seen one before? On the outside they look rather drab. Kind of a pale whitish-greenish color. But once you cut into it… cue the angels singing! ✨️💖 Bright neon pink and green and totally gorgeous. They’re crunchy and I think they’re very mild tasting. Some people describe them as peppery, but the few times I’ve had them I’ve never experienced that typical radish bite. 🤔 You can use them to: • add thin slices to salads or Buddha bowls • top an Asian-style noodle dish • top tacos • layer in sandwiches • pickle them Get creative! If you’ve tried watermelon radishes before, how do you like to use them? And if you haven’t, would you try one? Let us know. #watermelonradish #coolvegetables #uniqueveggies #rainbowveggie #radishes
