Crunchy Radish and Pea Salad

Crunchy Radish and Pea Salad

The other day I was grocery shopping at the Polish market by my house. In the pre-made salad section I came across a radish salad. I was about to put it in my cart when I thought, “I can make this myself.” So I picked up some radishes, scallions and added some of the peas I had at home. This salad would pair well with a hot entree or make a nice side dish in the summer instead of coleslaw. It is straight forward and simple, but very beautiful and tasty.

10 radishes thinly sliced
2 scallions thinly sliced
1 cup green peas
1/2 cup sour cream
Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Thinly slice scallions and radishes. Thaw peas or blanch them.

In a small bowl, combine peas, scallions and radishes.

Add sour cream and stir well.

If serving right away, add salt and pepper. Otherwise wait until you are serving to season to prevent salad from getting watery.
