Black radish extra french origin
510240
The extra black radish, selected by Le Delas, is an iconic winter root vegetable prized for its deep black skin, which contrasts with its immaculate white flesh. Grown in France, this root vegetable is distinguished by its firm, very crunchy texture and its characteristic sharp, peppery flavour. Its ‘extra' quality guarantees uniform, dense specimens, offering professionals a premium product to structure fresh starters or add character to raw vegetable platters.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Cold dishes and appetisers: Its firm, white flesh lends itself perfectly to being sliced into thin rounds using a mandoline for vegetable carpaccios. It can also be hollowed out with a melon baller to serve as a base for fish rillettes or creamy preparations.
► Culinary pairings: Its natural piquancy pairs remarkably well with rich ingredients such as churned butter, smoked salmon or foie gras. It is also an excellent choice for homemade pickles to add a zing to a dish.
► Preparation: Although the black skin is edible after careful scrubbing, it is often peeled to retain only the bright white flesh. To reduce its heat, the slices can be lightly blanched in fine salt before use.
► Storage: A robust product with a long shelf life, it should be stored in a positive-temperature cold room. To maintain its firmness and prevent it from becoming soft, it is advisable to store it away from light and excess moisture.
