Radish salsa

It’s June and Whitsend radishes and garlic shoots are here!  Everyone seems to be enjoying the Cherry Belle radishes we planted this year.  Try this salsa – it has a very pretty pink and green colour scheme.  Adapted from The Organic Cook’s Bible by Jeff Cox.


Ingredients

½ c. finely chopped radishes

½ c. diced tomato (canned tomato will do)
1 to 2 Tbsp. chopped garlic shoots
2 Tbsp. lemon or lime juice
1 tsp. minced hot pepper, or some hot pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
2 Tbsp. chopped parsley or cilantro
2 Tbsp. olive oil
Salt and pepper

Gently stir all ingredients together.  Makes about 1 ½ c. of salsa.
