What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Joy of Eating: Ravishing Radish Sandwich! There’s something a little French about nibbling on a radish sandwich. And you can pull it off without raising your pinky finger into the air. Choose an artisan bread such as a crusty baguette or toasted sesame loaf. All you really need is a little butter and sea salt. However, I went one step further and used a creamy Neufchâtel cheese blended with pimento-filled green olives. Can you say, “Oooh, La La”?
RAVISHING RADISH SANDWICH
Ingredients:
1 bunch of radishes, washed, stalks removed, and thinly sliced
8 ounces Neufchâtel cheese, softened
1/4 cup green olives, chopped
1 loaf artisan bread
1/4 teaspoon Chia seeds
Instructions:
In a small bowl, mix Neufchâtel cheese and green olives until combined. Slice bread evenly on a cutting board and then toast lightly. Slather each slice of bread with cheese spread. Layer radishes on top, randomly squeezing on as many pieces as possible. Sprinkle with chia seeds to garnish. Voilá!
This sounds great! Just instead of radishes I’d use roast beef. 😏

Love radishes as I have my Fall crop growing right now. I’ve used ricotta with radishes but the neufchatel sounds good too – no olives for me!

As per usual, you’ve given me yet another culinary idea.
First off, I LOVE this recipe because it’s fresh and it won’t gimme the sticker shock of a Jimmy John’s sub.
The inspiration you’ve created has olive and balsamic vinegar in mind, mayhaps I’ll roast ’em.
Muchisimas gracias for being the mad scientist of flavah

Delicious! I like slicing them on the mandarin & get them super thin. I haven’t used Neufchâtel cheese, but will have to pick some up & give it a whirl.

It’s a toss up between cucumber and radish, in my opinion. 🌿🌱🍃

So tasty! I usually go with just butter and salt, but love the idea of Neufchâtel with olives. Will keep it in mind! 🙂
