Yield Makes 12 finger sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste
2 scallions, minced fine
12 very thin slices of whole-wheat bread
2 cups thinly sliced radishes

Steps:

  • In a small bowl cream the butter and stir in the anchovy paste, the scallions, and salt and pepper to taste. Spread one side of each of 3 slices of the bread with some of the scallion butter and top the buttered side of one of the slices with an overlapping layer of the radishes. Top the radishes with another slice of the buttered bread, buttered side down, and butter the top of the slice. Top the butter with an overlapping layer of the radishes and top the radishes with the remaining slice of the buttered bread, buttered side down. Press the sandwich together gently, trim the crusts, and cut the sandwich lengthwise into thirds. Make sandwiches with the remaining bread, butter, and radishes in the same manner. The sandwiches may be made 2 hours in advance and kept wrapped in plastic and chilled.

RADISH SANDWICHES



Radish Sandwiches image

These tasty little sandwiches are great for appetizers, tea parties, ladies luncheons, etc., but my husband ate two full size sandwiches for lunch, and loved them. The recipe is from One of a Kind, a Mobile Junior League community cookbook I received from Sweetpea Burgess in the recent cookbook swap. Note for the World Tour participants - this recipe is included in the British category. These are ideal little sandwiches to be served with tea, as is common in Britain.

Time 20m

Yield 12-16 tea size sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 radishes, trimmed
6 ounces cream cheese (I used low fat)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (I used Smart Beat Spread)
1 tablespoon parsley, without stems
1 teaspoon chives, snipped
fresh lemon juice
salt
ground black pepper
6 -8 slices pumpernickel bread
4 trimmed radishes
coarse salt

Steps:

  • For the filling, finely chop the radishes in the food processor (or hand grater). Place in a large sieve or colander. Press with paper towels to drain and squeeze out any excess liquid.
  • Cream the cream cheese and butter together until fluffy (I used the food processor); add drained chopped radishes, parsley, chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and cream again.
  • Cut crusts from bread and cut into small squares or rounds. Spread with filling, and garnish with sliced or whole radishes coated with coarse salt.
  • Chill thoroughly before serving.

ROASTED RADISHES WITH ANCHOVIES



Roasted Radishes With Anchovies image

Crisp radishes turn sweet and juicy when briefly roasted at high heat. Here, the chef Bryan Hunt from Riverpark restaurant in Manhattan coats them in a pungent anchovy-rich bagna cauda sauce. This is best served warm rather than piping hot. You can make the anchovy mixture up to 3 days ahead. Store it in the fridge and bring it to room temperature before using.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (2.8-ounce) jar oil-packed anchovies, drained
1/3 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 garlic clove, grated
2 bunches radishes with fresh greens (1 1/2 pounds), preferably French breakfast radishes
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 teaspoons chopped parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, more to taste

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan over very low heat, combine anchovies and 1/3 cup olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until anchovies have melted into the oil, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in garlic.
  • Clean the radishes thoroughly under running water, leaving any nice greens attached if possible; drain and dry very well. Leave smaller radishes whole and halve any large ones lengthwise.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Heat a very large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Add the radishes in a single layer. Cook, without moving, until undersides are golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip radishes and transfer skillet to oven. Cook until radishes are tender enough to be easily pierced with a knife, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on size of radishes.
  • Return skillet to stove top over medium-high heat. Toss with anchovy oil, butter, parsley and lemon juice. Serve warm.
