Thanks -- I'll try that, and if it doesn't work, to hell with radishes.


Andy comments:

Don't give up if you get good radish greens. They can be cooked
just like turnip greens, and can make a nice slad when eaten raw
with a little dressing.

Furthermore, if you get some whole radishes, they can be cooked
and are very much like those little potatoes you get in restaurants.
Put them in boiling water for 8-10 minutes, and they change character
completely --- the "hotness" disappears, and the texture is that of
a boiled potato. I cook the greens and the radishes together, after
chopping the greens.

I like radishes because, around here, I can get 5 packs of seeds
for
a dollar, and they grow in 3-4 weeks. Sandy soild is very good for
them. This is North Texas .
