That was a brief film of me blinking in surprise. I had no idea radish greens were edible, and had no idea that I didn't have any idea they were edible. I mean, of course they are! But... radish greens? Edible? What do they taste like? Where does one use them aside from pesto?

I am now intrigued.

Radish greens are peppery like arugula but more coarse in texture. I like them best in pesto, but they're also very good pickled lightly as in sunomono; just brine small, fresh whole leaves in rice vinegar, salt, and sugar. You can also steam them or braise them or add them to anything you'd put arugula or turnip greens or mustard greens in, or chop them into salads.

They tend to pick up a lot of dirt so it's good to wash them really well.
