How to prep the radishes
One of our main tips for prepping these roasted radishes is this – don’t throw out the greens! When you cut off the greens from the radishes, you can save them for use in a different recipe. Just wash them, pat dry and wrap in a paper towel for storage in the refrigerator. You can use radish greens in place of other leafy green vegetables in salads or other recipes.
How do I know when the radishes are done?
The best way to tell if radishes are fully cooked is to stick a fork in them! A fork should slide in easily, without much resistance. If the radishes feel hard and the fork won’t go in easily, cook them a little longer. Radishes cook similar to potatoes, so you are looking for them to be soft but not mushy or burnt.
