About Red radish
Red radish is a market description for radish roots whose skin is red or reddish; it does not identify one particular cultivar. The roots are commonly eaten raw, sliced or grated, and may also be cooked or pickled. They are usually small to medium, with crisp, moist flesh that is white or pale inside.
The skin colour and root shape vary by type, while the flavour is often peppery and brisk, sometimes milder or sharper depending on variety and growing conditions. Red radishes are sold whole with or without their leafy tops, and may also be sold trimmed, sliced or preserved. These forms and the edible portion should not be treated as interchangeable.
