These watermelon radishes take after their namesake, not only in color but also because of how refreshing they are compared to their cousins, the garden variety red radish. In fact, Chinese cuisine uses these as a way to counterbalance the fishiness of seafood dishes. Slice thinly to expose their striking pink starburst center. Top green salads or avocado toast for a meal as beautiful as it is palatable; serve with salmon; dry to make watermelon radish chips; or pickle to impart a uniqueness to all your cold dishes. Some bunches will have greens and some will not, it depends on the harvest and quality of leaves. Make sure to save any greens for delicious radish greens pesto, sauté with garlic and oil, or try these peppery leaves raw.
