Radish Toasts

This is based on a Jacques Pepin recipe.  It's just toast and radishes.

What you need
  • Radishes
  • Bread - sour dough, baguette, whatever
  • cream cheese
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
To make toast I like to slice the bread and drizzle some olive oil on it then put it under the broiler.

Slice the radishes with a mandolin to get nice even slices or brush up on your knife skills.

Smear cream cheese on the toasts.  I first cut the toast into small two-bite sizes.

Layer the radish slices like scales.

Sprinkle salt and pepper.

There, done.  In Jacques' recipie he used butter but I thought cream cheese would work better.  You don't need a lot of it either - unless you really want a lot of cream cheese then smear away.
