Radishes With Herby Whipped Feta Recipes

ROASTED RADISH AND FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Assemble the salad: Once the radishes are cooked, allow them to cool for a few minutes before assembling the salad. (At this point, the radishes can also be cooled completely and refrigerated for up to 5 days.) Combine the roasted radishes and crumbled feta in a salad bowl, and toss with a tablespoon or two of the vinaigrette. Taste and toss with additional dressing as needed. Scatter the herbs over the salad and toss to combine. If your radishes are still warm, the herbs will wilt; this is fine. Serve warm or at room temperature. Leftovers will keep for a few days in the fridge.

HERB AND RADISH SALAD WITH FETA AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread walnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast for 10 to 12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool, then chop roughly. Place in a sieve and shake away loose skin and crumbs. Set chopped nuts aside.
• Use a sharp knife or mandoline to slice the radishes and cucumbers into thin coins roughly 1/8-inch thick. Place in a medium bowl. Add walnuts.
• In a small glass or jar, whisk together lemon juice and olive oil to make the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Just before serving, season radishes, cucumbers and walnuts with a pinch of salt and dress lightly with 3 to 4 tablespoons of vinaigrette. Toss well to combine. Add crumbled cheese and toss gently to combine without breaking the cheese down too much. Arrange in a loose mound in a shallow serving bowl (or on a platter).
• Place herbs in the mixing bowl, season with a pinch of salt, and dress very lightly with about 1 tablespoon vinaigrette. Toss to combine, then pile the herb salad atop the radishes and cucumbers. Serve immediately.

HERBY FETA & LEMON DIP WITH CRUDITéS

Steps:

• Place the feta in a food processor or blender. Add the lemon juice and half of the olive oil. Purée until smooth, then add the remaining olive oil. Stir in the dill and mint. Pour into a small container with a fitted lid and refrigerate until needed. Pack the veg in a low-level container and serve them from it.
