He went on to describe the peppery flavor of radish tops and how he loved to saute them and eat them alone, but his wife made a pesto with them that he really liked, too. Pesto??
I bought the radishes and roasted them and used the green tops for pesto. We've used this pesto to top chicken, as a dip and in pasta. Yum.
