Apple Radish Slaw

Apple Radish Slaw

An heirloom variety of Chinese daikon, this delicacy goes by many names — watermelon radish, xin li mei, and beauty heart. Why? Because no single name could do it justice! Its size, coupled with its white/pale green exterior, immediately lets you know that this is not your average radish. Still, the real treat awaits. Slice one open and you’ll be greeted by a gorgeous pink interior that looks more like candy than a veggie.

Fittingly, watermelon radishes are sweet and mild, with just a tiny hint of pepper. With a well-balanced flavor profile, they’re perfect for all sorts of raw, pickled, and cooked preparations.

Come explore nature’s candy with one of our favorite rad dishes.
