Radish- French Breakfast
Raphanus sativus
The colorful coloring of the French Breakfast radish, whether circular or cylindrical, is renowned for graduating from a vivid fuchsia-red to bright white at the top. French Breakfast radishes are very crisp and have a slightly spicy taste and are topped with edible, leafy vegetables. The French Breakfast radish's mildly sweet and nutty taste is improved by grilling or oven roasting.
