Serves 4

[printable recipe]

Ingredients:
2 bunches medium radishes, cleaned and trimmed
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons tarragon butter (see recipe below)
Lemon wedges, optional

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450°F.  Cut radishes in half lengthwise and toss with olive oil. Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet and place into the oven.  Roast until radishes for 18-20 minutes, or until radishes are crisp-tender, shaking the pan occasionally to promote even browning.

Meanwhile, melt tarragon butter over medium low heat, just until melted.  Set aside.

Transfer radishes to a serving bowl and drizzle with butter.

Finish with a spritz of fresh lemon juice, if desired.

Tarragon Butter

Ingredients:
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, finely chopped
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Kosher salt

Directions:
Cream butter. Add tarragon, lemon zest, and salt to taste. Place butter mixture on a long sheet of plastic wrap, and roll into a 3-inch log, covering completely. Chill until firm.
