I have to write this little post because honestly I have heard about sauteing radishes but never could come to terms why someone would take a beautiful round red radish and ruin it by cooking it. There is just some veggies I like raw, turnips, radishes and carrots to name a few. but tonight I was searching for food and I wanted something warm and all we had was salad stuff, so in lieu of lettuce I took a deep breath and cut up shallots and radishes.
My heart sunk, literally it sunk as I put them in my hot pan of coconut oil and let them saute up. I am not going to lie it was a depressing sight for me to watch these beautiful vegetables lose some of their brightness. I added my chicken shreds and some sprinkling of red coral sea salt and browned and served in a bowl.
My first bite caught me off guard. I took another bite and pretty soon I was scarfing this down and enjoying each bite. I enjoyed it so much that I didn’t even stop to take a photo of the wonderful meal. I will make it again so I am sure to get a photo soon.
My diet consists lately (food allergies galore) of meat and veggie stir fry’s. but I have sensitivities to so many veggies that I am limited so I have to make do with what I can actually eat.
If you have the same get up about warm radishes, let me help you out. You will never enjoy a new taste sensation like this. Its one of those things you just got to try once out of curiosity. I think I have been sitting on the fear of warm radishes for about 4 years now. I can’t believe I have been missing out. The best thing is it will be different each time because some radishes are sweeter, mild and some are down right spicy.
My next fear to conquer is chia pudding, but that will have to wait until I can have sugar, cocoa and a few other things again. But I am definitely going to try.
what funny things have you thought would be totally awful but they turned out good???????
by the way never ever ever dip green olives in chocolate, I did learn that the hard way, talk about something that will produce instant gag……….that combo does for sure.
Keep eating healthy, until next time Selah
