Radish

A radish never tastes as good as when eaten in between mouthfuls of your carne asada. Its refreshing and spicy bite is the best contrast you can ask for and it tastes great simply sliced, dressed with fresh lime juice, and sprinkled with salt. You can always count on sliced radishes with a little lime and salt as a side dish to serve with any kind of grilled meat featured in this cookbook. Look for radishes that have bright-green tops with no signs of wilting.
