Radishes at the farmer's market
What do you do with a chicken breast to make it more exciting? I thought about this last night and decided to make a cream sauce. The end result was fantastic. This cream sauce would probably work with fish and vegetables as well. It is a pretty free form recipe. Once you’ve made the roux to your liking, everything else is just included in quantities your taste buds see fit.
The roasted radishes are wonderful and extremely easy. I always thought I didn’t like radishes. I don’t like their spicy bite. Then my uncle taught me to roast them. Roasting them takes the bite away and leaves a sweetness behind.
Finally, I hate kitchen waste, always wanting to stretch my dollar and prevent usable things from ending up in the garbage. The radishes came with green tops, so they must be eaten as well. Radish greens, like radishes, have a bit of a bite that is diminished with longer cooking. If you don’t have radish greens, other spicy greens like mustard could be used in this recipe.
