My favorite radish dish is radish soup pesto. It is my favorite because the fact is that It keeps my weight in check and I do not have to worry about excess fat. I also love it because it can be eaten alongside pasta and chicken. In a bid to get you started on radish leaves, my home-made recipe for radish leaves pesto has been added to this article.
