For this dish, use any of the large, new heirloom radishes, such as watermelon or Beauty Heart, with their beautiful, “tie-die” cross sections.

As for the organic, cold-pressed canola oil from Canada, run—don’t walk— to find that, though you can substitute yellow extra virgin olive oil.

If you can’t find Meyer lemons, use regular ones that are ripe and full of juice mixed with some freshly squeezed grapefruit juice; the proportions should be ⅔ lemon to ⅓ grapefruit juice.
