Ingredients

For the Roasted Radishes
  • 1-1/2 pounds globe radishes (about 25), trimmed, washed, and halved to a uniform size
  • 2 tablespoons regular olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
For the Tarragon Vinaigrette
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely-grated lemon zest , plus additional for garnish, if desired
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 large shallot , finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly-ground black pepper , to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F with the rack in the middle position.
  2. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss radishes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Arrange radishes in a single layer, cut sides down.
  3. Roast 15-20 minutes, until cut sides are caramelized and radishes are crisp-tender in the center. For a softer interior texture (similar to a potato), toss the radishes on the sheet pan and continue roasting for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  4. While radishes are roasting, combine Dijon mustard, lemon zest and juice, shallot, and tarragon in a small bowl. Pour in extra-virgin olive oil in a steady stream while whisking, until dressing is emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  5. Let radishes cool slightly (about 5 minutes), place in a serving bowl, and gently toss with vinaigrette (you might not need all of the dressing). Serve slightly warm, or at room temperature, garnished with additional lemon zest, salt, and pepper, if desired.

Notes

  • *Baking times can vary by the size of your radishes. I like to halve smaller radishes and quarter them if they're large.
