Ingredients
  

  • 8-10 pieces radishes preferably small and firm
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh if possible
  • 1 teaspoon honey optional for sweetness
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Equipment

  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or Tossing Utensil

Method
 

  1. Start by rinsing the radishes under cold water, then pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
  2. Using a sharp knife and cutting board, thinly slice the radishes crosswise to reveal their vibrant white and red color combination. Aim for even, delicate slices about 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Place the sliced radishes into a mixing bowl, spreading them out evenly to prepare for dressing.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, honey (if using), and ground black pepper until smooth and well combined. The dressing should be creamy and slightly tangy.
  5. Pour the dressing over the sliced radishes in the mixing bowl.
  6. Gently toss everything together with a spoon or tossing utensil, making sure all the radishes are coated evenly with the dressing. The slices should glisten and be satisfying to the touch.
  7. Let the salad sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld, or serve immediately for a crisp, fresh bite.

Notes

Feel free to add fresh herbs like dill or parsley for extra flavor. This salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for a few hours.
