Equipment

Method
 

  1. Wash the radishes thoroughly under cold water, then dry them with a clean towel. Using a sharp knife and cutting board, slice the radishes very thinly for a crisp texture.
  2. Place the sliced radishes into a large mixing bowl, spreading them out evenly.
  3. Add the sour cream to the bowl with the radishes, using a spoon or spatula to gently fold the slices into the cream until evenly coated and combined.
  4. Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper to enhance the flavors. Stir again to distribute evenly.
  5. Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if desired. The radishes should be crisp and the sour cream velvety and tangy.
  6. Transfer the radish and sour cream salad to a serving bowl or plate. It can be served immediately or chilled for 15-20 minutes to enhance the flavors and maintain crispness.

Notes

For a milder radish flavor, soak sliced radishes in cold water for 10 minutes before draining and assembling the salad.
