Radish Leaf Salad

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the salad
½ teaspoon kosher salt

Leaves from 1 bunch radishes, washed and dried

4 radishes, halved if large, and thinly sliced

1 ear of corn, cooked and kernels removed

1 large ripe tomato, seeded and diced

¼ cup finely chopped red onions or shallots

Freshly ground pepper

For the dressing
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 ½ tablespoons sour cream or plain yogurt

1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

½ teaspoon honey or sugar

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

To make the salad, quarter or halve the cucumber(s) lengthwise, then scoop out the seeds. Slice the cucumber(s), place in a small bowl, and toss with ½ teaspoon salt. Let sit for 15 minutes, then rinse, drain, and pat dry.

Meanwhile, remove any stringy stems or yellowed parts from the radish leaves, then tear the leaves into bite-size pieces.

Place the radish leaves, radishes, corn, tomato, and onions in a salad bowl.

To make the dressing, whisk together all of the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.

Add the cucumbers to the salad with salt and pepper to taste, toss with the dressing, and serve.
