RADISH & SCALLION SALAD

Steps:

• Rinse and dry the vegetables. Slice the scallions and place in a bowl. Add some salt and all of the sugar - this salad is supposed to taste sweet - mix gently.
• Cut the radishes in thin slices. Mix in the radish slices. Add the creme fraiche, one tablespoon at a time, until you get a mixture resembling a creamy potato salad in consistency.
• Serve immediately, as both the sugar and salt draw out liquid from the vegetables, making the salad soggy.
