The Powerful Might of the Black Radish

Edible Skinny was at the Mar Vista Farmers Market last weekend and while there we discovered the healthful world of the Black Radish at Weiser Family Farms.

It was noted, especially by Kenny of Weiser, the Black Radish is not for everyone.   Spicy and bitter, this is a veggie not for the faint of heart.  But the pluses to the body are a wealth of nutrients that can benefit the liver, digestion, help remove kidney stones, and balance thyroid hormones.  

To serve this bold root vegetable you’ll definitely need to peel it.  Kenny at Weiser Family Farms suggested afterwards you slice your Black Radishes on a mandolin and have them in as salad so its pungent flavor is masked with a dressing.  

Hope your salads are always full of spice and that Life is always delicious!
