The use of radish in cooking

This root vegetable is not very suitable for cooking hot dishes, although its leaves, which are very rich in carotene and other valuable substances, are used as a vitamin supplement for cooking green cabbage soup. Connoisseurs of green products use both root crops and tender leaves in radish. In the spring they are added to soup and salad. Most often it is used as an appetizer, because radishes are an excellent base for delicious spring salads. It is also good for making sandwiches and even drinks. It is best to eat radishes before dinner, because it not only improves appetite, but also helps to increase the absorption of food. (Useful properties and application of radish in medicine →)

Unfortunately, radishes cannot be stored under normal conditions, since the root crops wither quickly, completely losing their taste. Cooling chambers are another matter: here it can be stored for a long time. By the way, radish leaves can be dried, some fans can even preserve them for the winter.
