Somebody shoot me.
Why didn’t I think of this salad?
I could have, given enough time, red wine and an inspirational view.
Maybe.
But it doesn’t matter.
Melissa Clark beat me to it and got it published in the NY Times.
And I am so glad she did.

I am always looking for ways to use radishes, since my CSA gives me oodles of them.
For the verrry literal reader, is the first ingredient, 1/2 cup of radishes or 2-4 cups of radishes?
Lord today, I didn't notice that at all.
1/2 cup!!
thanks Deb!
Great recipe which I lost and could not find on The NY Times website. Thanks for the posting. PS: Virtually every one of Melissa Clark's recipes is a winner, easy and foolproof.
