Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 radishes chopped (number of radishes doesn't have to be exact)
- 1 jalapeno stem and seeds removed, diced
- 1 small red onion chopped
- 1 lime juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro thick stems removed, minced
Instructions
- Prepare the pickled radishes by combining the chopped or diced 8 radishes, 1 jalapeno, 1 small red onion, juice from 1 lime, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 cup fresh cilantro in small bowl. Note: you can add more or less of any of the ingredients depending on your taste preference. For this recipe, it's the combination of ingredients that provide the great flavor and texture; the quantities are easily changed.
- Taste the mixture and adjust any of the ingredients as needed. If it's too acidic, add more salt. If it's too salty, add more lime juice. If you need more spice, add more jalapeno. If it's too spicy, add more of all the other ingredients.
- Quick pickled radishes be eaten right away, but they are best if they are allowed at least an hour to marinate.
