# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • The crunch of radishes against cool cucumber feels like eating sunshine itself
  • It comes together in under 15 minutes but tastes like you planned something special
02 -
  • Slicing the vegetables very thinly makes all the difference between a salad that tastes fresh and one that feels chunky and awkward
  • The salad actually gets better after sitting for a few hours, so it is perfect for making ahead of time for gatherings
03 -
  • Use a mandoline if you have one, because paper thin radishes transform this from good to extraordinary
  • Let the dressed salad sit for at least 10 minutes, because that brief rest period lets the acid work its magic
