- Radishes are one of the easiest crops to grow and easily one of my LEAST favorite to eat! However, that might change after trying out this odd but delicious radish pizza recipe. Did we pull off the ULTIMATE radish recipe??

Okay, does no one else wonder why the logo has a radish if Kevin hates radishes?! 😮
😂
I always thought it was a beet, which they DO like.
I thought it was a beet
Maybe the graphic designer who created the logo loves Radish 🤷♀️
Fully thought it was a beet.
The laughing/walk-in/alliteration never get old. Never change. Have a great summer.
I would watch an hour long compilation of you guys walking in places and laughing
@@BeanBunnyBass honestly, same.
Epic Homesteading is a full-circle, all encompassing channel: learn horticulture, animal husbandry, food storage and cooking techniques in a one-stop-shop. No other TH-cam channel is necessary.
Agree
Ive learned alot
The little sound effect when Kevin is shaking pizza dough 😂
Production value through the roof
Seriously, my wife treats radishes, turnips, and potatoes all the same: smother in a bit of olive oil, season as desired, & roast in the oven.
Freaking delicious every time.
I like the radishes you get with tacos. Radish, cuke, sprinkle with salt and a generous squeeze of lime. Instant refreshing pickle
Pickled radish is very common in Asia and it’s so amazing, personally one of my favorite side dishes to pair with spicy or super flavorful food as a pallet cleanser.
Crispy water is the best description of a radish I've ever heard lol
I personally love them pickled or boiled - tastes kinda like a sad potato
edit: please give whoever edits these videos a raise, simply for that jacque edit when he took off the hat 😂😂🤩🤩
This (and all these comments on this video) gives me hope as someone who also actively hates radishes. I've ALWAYS had them raw in salads and such, and I'm just not into that peppery flavor. I'm actually excited to try them cooked now.
Also I love the energy of these epic cooking videos. It feels like standing around a kitchen with some good friends and some drinks.
Please never stop laughing in the intros
unpopular view : please stop !
personal view : never stop ! 😆❤️
If radish roots aren’t exactly your cup of 🍵, you can sauté the greens or you can pick the young, green seed pods & pickle them! I was surprised how great they tasted (just make sure you pick them before they get pithy). And if you really just don’t like the taste of radishes in general, you can always grow them for their flowers! They (like the rest of their brassica counterparts) will attract a multitude of pollinators & beneficial insects to your garden & how can you go wrong with that?? 🌸🐝💝
Salt on radishes was something my Japanese mom told me about, makes the bitterness more tolerable and adds sweetness, like Jacques said :)
We have always cut off the top and the root, wash them then put them in a bowl of water in the fridge. It helps firm them up and makes them crunchy. Change the water every couple days until you use them up. They last me about two weeks in the fridge. I like to snack on them or dice them up for on a salad.
I have some in a dry bowl in my fridge on the top shelf, they've been there at least three weeks and they're still good. They were washed and trimmed. It makes sense that they never go bad since they have no taste or use.
@@Josef_R i have found some that the bigger they are the hotter they are. They have more flavor when their bigger.
@@tammymanuel9158 I don't consider heat to be flavor. But heat would be another reason I don't like them. I roast them with fish sauce and they are ok to eat. But I'd rather eat a pizza or a cheeseburger or just about anything else.
Since radish isn't really your cup of tea, you can ferment them. They are delicious fermented.
I stopped growing radishes for the root and started growing them for the utterly delightful greens.
That’s what I do with Beets!
This awesome video has made me binge watch your entire epic kitchen playlist for the last few hours.
I’m new to gardening (last spring was my first season) and although I’m an okay cook, making things from scratch is not my strong suit.
I can cook the basics, but following recipes and making anything from scratch has always felt like so much work.
But after getting into gardening (and now after watching your epic kitchen playlist), I feel inspired to give garden to table recipes a go!
I admire you and Jaqués for not only doing these things yourselves, but for documenting the process so we can all learn from it as well.
I just love this channel and all of the Epic extended universe! Your content always brings a smile to my face!
Jacque I hadn't seen you without your gardener hat before! You are looking very handsome 🤗
What I like to do with my radishes are. I pickle them with other root vegetables. I also kimchi them. They are so good.
"This pizza looks violent." 😂🤣
Honestly, have you ever thought about the variety you're growing? While I grow the breakfast radishes to make pickled radishes for my kids, I only grow a little. For me, and my family, we prefer growing both Korean (Alpine F1) and Japanese Daikon (Miyashige) radishes. They are super mild and sweet. We make numerous dishes with them (like radish kimchi, stirfry, and side salads; and even fry them like french fries) but our absolute default use is soups/stews and stocks. They give them an excellent flavor and are delicious just boiled and mashed on their own, right after you strain them from the stock.
Dude, your editor is killing it! The quick editor adds multiply the jokes and the fun. Mustache and geology, keep it up.
I absolutely love watching Kevin and Jacques hanging out
I like raw radish in a charcuterie board. It makes for a nice pallet cleanser. I also pickle them for side dishes in Japanese meals or if I do Korean bbq! ❤
Have you guys ever tried them pickled? My mom would always make a quick pickled radish with just vinegar and sugar, it’s delicious! It removes all the bitterness and makes them slightly soft but still crunchy with the right amount of sweetness. We always had it as a side with (Peruvian) fried rice. You should try it!
Omgggg I died with the F4/Meteor Garden background music when Jacques took off his hat 😭😂😭
Coming from a radish lover! I love eating them with street tacos and a good bowl of pozole!!
I love radishes! And I love them raw. ❤ But they’re not meant for flavor, they’re meant for texture. Anyone eating it all by itself will always be disappointed. I love to put them on avocado toast, with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. And the thicker cut the better, I find, so a 1/2 inch sounds about right to me! 😆
I love the crunch and crispiness of radishes!
A little butter 🧈 and salt on a fresh radish😋
I'll be a French Ambassador here! The ONLY way we eat those pink radishes in France is: with butter and salt (with big cristals, not fine ones).
If you're preparing in advance, cut the radish from the top in a star shape and dump them all in a bowl of ice cold water for 15 minutes! The cold makes the edges curl backwards, they will look like little flowers 💐
I'll try, Marine!
Then again if you don't like the taste there's no need to push it.. You simply don't like the taste!
Funny however how I had never heard of cooking radishes. From one country to the next we really have different ways of doing things
Giving me classic My Drunk Kitchen vibes without the drinking. I'm SO here for it!
I am flabbergasted at the radish slander D:
peppery deliciousness what is there to dislike. and it's so crunchy omg guys
Penzy's SPICES ARE a GREAT gift to give!!! I would LOVE TO SEE A PARTNERED VIDEO WITH JACQ, or just continue to boast their brand in homestead cooking. They stand by so many good ethics. Great gift Jacq!!
English and French Breakfast radishes are the only radishes i grow but i keep them in constant rotation! Im a garden salad queen and they're such a refreshing addition 😍
As somebody that grew up in a culturally Russian household, if you didn't like radishes, you'd quickly get disowned! 😂 We mostly just ate it raw, with salt or in a summer soup (Okroshka). You guys definitely need to try it out in Okroshka!
I’m Mexican and we use/eat them all the time.
I recognize those Penzey's labels! Always love how much fun you have with your garden and your videos.
Love how much fun you guys have, and please never stop! 😂
Kevin left his hat on!
Also garlic and onion powder might be good too on roasted radishes. I wonder if balsamic vinegar and basil would be good too
"whisper of the past" great description!
We can't grow enough radishes, we love them!!! We always plan to roast them each year but they don't really ever make it into the house, I pick them, clean them with my shirt and eat snack on them while checking/watering the garden
My neighbor grows lots of radishes every year and every year I try to convince him to try them roasted. I also can't get my family to try it, but they are one of my favorite roasted veggies! I do a little maple balsamic roasted root veggies, plus some zucchini or asparagus and it's like candy. I never thought they were potato-y though. I'll have to try them on pizza.
I got a little feisty when you both said you don't like radishes.... I love them!!! I can eat them just straight raw.... but thinly sliced and on fresh tacos. Oh my goodness.
My mom used to eat bread butter and radish sandwiches all the time gardening menu 101 😊
Just because you CAN grow and eat something doesn't mean you HAVE TO...that's my planting mantra after a few winters of a crisper full of turnips and radishes
I put them in traditional Kim Chi and ferment them in a radish Kim Chi. They are fine in salads, nice texture, but in fermented spicy water, they get amaze! But mostly, I grow Daikon.
Radishes are so funny. They are SO satisfying to grow and I always will. Now just have to figure out how to eat them lol
Love radishes but not on pizza. My family used to gather at the Mona Lisa every Friday back in the 80’s and 90s. Absolutely love everything they make. The market is awesome! I’m living in Virginia now and miss it so much. Keep up the good work guys!
My favorite Polish way to eat radishes is to butter some rye bread, slice the radishes thickly on top, and salt. Simple and delish. ;)
And - those greens are edible, too! And a 'chain mail' style cutting glove works better than that fabric style for protection.
I was so relieved when the blue kitchen towel disappeared at the fifteen minutes later scene after watching Kevin wipe his mouth with it before tossing onto the corner countertop…
Just a quick pickle is all they need to make them awesome.
More people would garden and cook if these sound effects were real. 😂❤
As a kid my dad ate these along with sliced onions and banana peppers at meal times. So i tried a radish with a little salt, and I was hooked! I ate them like candy. Lol my family looks at me crazy every time i buy some. Lol
I laughed too hard during this episode
Ok….you will enjoy radish dipped in salt instead of sprinkling salt on radish. I know…a fine point. But I learned this from my mother-in-law.
She also saved my life when I inadvertently got chile pepper essence in my nostrils one evening (chopping jalapeños). OMG! Preparing chiles and had to use a tissue to blow my nose. We had to call her in Altadena (Pasadena area) from San Diego and ask for her advice. (She was an RN). Put milk into your nostrils. OMG! It worked instantly. Just a few drops from a dropper. Instant relief.
🌶🌶🌶 (Tried to send a “radish” emoji…..no emoji) What’s up with that?
Guys ferment the radishes! Total game changer! I hate them plain too, but fermented is a whole different vegetable. They're great on sandwiches, on burgers, fried in a grilled cheese, of course in salads, and just for plain snacking.
Yaasss! Love this! Why are we always “grow radishes” when we all know no one reaaallly likes them! 😂 Brilliant!
Jacques, when you mix the veg for the green salad (cucumber, radishes, spring onion/garlic) with salt, it takes the bitterness of the radishes out. Then when you add the lettuce and put in some oil and vinegar, the radishes are pretty much lost and add the occasional pop of crunch. This is one thing that makes me look forward to spring every year. Sometimes you do add an egg, and/or canned tuna, works surprisingly well
Add some spearmint, lovage and sweet corn and it the perfect spring salad ;)
Great video. I have found that you can shred radishes and make hash browns out of them. This gives the radishes a potato-like flavor. For the French breakfast radishes, cut them paper-thin and put the slices on baguette with butter.
i love your guys lowk overly reassuring nods and okays when the other one talks it’s very nice 😊
I hope everyone else gets as much joy from the Epic Homestead intros as I do
Alright guys. Do yourself a favor and get a ooni koda pizza oven (you can even slip a cast iron skillet in there to roast some veggies!). One of the best investments I've ever made. Also, cleaning a food processor cannot be fun. I typically use an emersion blender directly in the can to make the cleaning process easier. Keep it up guys!
Try storing the radishes in water and put them in the fridge. They get super crunchy, the flavor very mild, and you can chop them up and add to salads! Lasts for a long time, just replace the water every once in a while
PENZEY's :D Great company - great gift, Jacque!
You guys crack me up. Radishes are one of my absolute favorite things from the garden. I grow a crap ton of them and snack on them when I go out to the garden in the morning for breakfast. Sometimes I bring the salt shaker sometimes I don't. They are the best in early spring. Rinse and chomp. I eat bunches and bunches of them. I do NOT like them cooked. It doesn't taste like a potato at all and was weird to me. Give me all the crunchy radishes I can eat.
My husband eats radishes sliced up with lemon or lime juice and a dash of salt.
My favorite way to eat radish, as not a big radish fan is to sauté them and use as an omelette stuffing along with sausage, onion and pepper!! It’s sooo good!
I have always found the little red radishes to be so-so, but when it comes to Daikon radishes and asian cooking, it is definitely a king in the pantry. Daikon radish cakes are a seasonal yum-yum you definitely need to try at least once in your lifetime, because it doesn't look or taste like what you'd expect from a radish. Also, kimchee radish, pickled radish, radish soup, etc, the daikon is highly versatile in asian cuisine. I gave up on these tiny red things, because the critters love munching the red ones, but leave the white and green ones alone in the garden. Also, the bees love the radish flowers a lot, so that's a bonus when they bolt.
I agree pickled daikon is amazing
If you roast several kinds of root veggies with radishes on a sheet in the oven with olive oil and salt and pepper, they are good. Also when you cook a roast or stew add them with your other veggies and they are really tasty.
I had to stop at the mention of Mona Lisa's and cry a bit because my husband used to be stationed in SD and we went there often! So. Good!! We're in Illinois now and despite being famous for pizza, let me tell you, the food in the Midwest leaves A LOT to be desired. Takes cardboard pizza to a whole new level 🥴😩😭
I love radishes! I love eating them raw. My husband does not understand why I love radishes so much. Lol He says it doesn't taste like anything. I grow radishes in late Spring, and I always get spicy radishes. I will definitely make a radish pizza!
I just trim them clean them and put them in a bowl of water in the fridge..
they stay crunchy and just a great snack. my son loved them
I love eating radishes raw w salt! I currently am growing my first radishes from seed and hopefully they make it and are tasty!!
I love radishes! They are a staple with tacos and in pozole 😋
Radishes are delicious if you sauté them in a skillet with butter or olive oil & add a little salt & pepper 🤌💋✨ “French Breakfast” is definitely the best variety to use for this cooking method (but I like them all!)
I grew some cherry bells that were just fantastic. Everyone I shared with raved about how good they were. I also grew some golden ones from Romania. They grew bigger and we're also very good. I'm not sure what type I have next but will be planting more again in the next week. I enjoy growing different types to experiment with variety. As with all my plants. Who wants to just keep growing the same thing over and over? I live in So Cal so I'm fortunate enough that I can grow year round. Always have a full garden with a little of everything.
To be fair, you could saute cardboard in a skillet with butter, salt and pepper and it would be delicious.
@@brianmoore4299 That’s awesome 😊 I’ve never had a golden radish before! Is that a spicier variety?? I’ll have to give that a try in the future. & I agree with you about diversifying! I have 5 different radish varieties growing in my garden right now 😂 (French breakfast, purple plum, white hailstone, pink beauty, and red rat’s tail {a variety I got from Baker Creek that is grown strictly for its long seed pods instead of the roots})
@@kypie8 familiar with the rats tail from baker creek. Also growing that currently. I grew them last year and liked them. Even have my back neighbor growing some from seeds I gave him. And no on the spicier for the golden. Sort of mellow I'd say.
@@brianmoore4299 Haha same here! Last year was my first year growing them & I loved the pods so I had to do it again
That cheese slap! Lol also the Portuguese coming through!!!! Kevin come on over to New Bedford Ma, we got the Portuguese feast for you!
Dude...I might wake up EVERY night craving salted radishes now that you've put it that way. Salted radish and turnips forever!
I'm not too fond of radishes myself, but I grow them for the fun of it. I will definitely try making pizza with them to see if they really taste like potatoes (which I love)! Thanks, Kevin and Jacques!
Growing radish to eat the young seed pods is the way to go in my opinion. I grew radishes last year because I like the spicy taste of them and wanted to add fresh radishes to my salads since I was already growing everything else I usually put in my salad in the garden…and well I grew a few more than I could eat and they started going to seed. When I found out the seed pods are edible and tried it for the first time it was a game changer. If you eat the pods when they are plump but not completely mature the flavor is spicier than the radish itself before it would have gone to seed…almost like horseradish. I eat a handful of them plain with salt sprinkled on top as a quick snack, tossed in salad, or if I have a lot I will pickle them. I’ve even cooked them in a stir fry a couple of times and they lose their spice and end up tasting exactly like green beans in a stir fry.
You guys are so funny 😂
May I suggest arugula instead of parsley.
Jacques - you missed your chance to take off his hat!
Kevin - talking about your Epic girlfriend and kids😮 I wish you lits of happiness❤
Very nice! I had an awesome idea for your watercrest taking over your pond:
YUM PHAK BOONG
Watercress flash fried in rice flour, drizzled in coconut milk, and served with a coconut lime chili-oil dipping sauce.
My in-laws made radish sandwiches; white bread, butter and sliced radishes.
I love the entering chuckles, my fav
Love the video, you guys made me laugh all through the video 😅
Great mow I’m addicted to both channels and the podcast love the info and content. The intro laugh is priceless👌🏽🕺🏽
Chop & fry those FB radishes with lots of butter and serve on sourdough toast and with a fried egg. So good
i never have enough radishes lolll i can eat 15 each day in the garden... i never tried them yet roasted... its one of the 1st fresh vedgie we get in the sping...in canada montreal
My favorite way to have radishes are to grate it like hashbrowns and saute until a little brown like you would hashbrowns and eat with an over easy egg!
It’s not weird that the salt made it sweeter. Salt opens up your tastebuds and allows you to really taste the flavor of what you’re eating. The same as ginger being used as a palette cleanser in sushi. Try it with coffee too. Take a sip and then eat a little mozzarella. Taste the coffee again. You’ll be amazed at how the flavor changes. And the combo sounds weird, but oddly enough it works. Great test if you want to know if a coffee is truly smooth or bitter.
Fascinating!
I’m growing French breakfast . There my favorite
Love the “kitchen creations “! Half the fun of growing food is creating ways to cook and eat it. Well done! Radish Pizza may become a new trend 🍕
If it's the bitterness and sharpness that gets to you, then just like with turnips and mustards, pretty much any cooking method will mellow that out. Of course you can simply saute them in oil or butter, which is probably the quickest and easiest way. I enjoy them roasted as well, and even my mother-in-law admitted that made them become food for her. The first time I ever had them cooked, they were slowly simmered in oil (I think this method is called confit?) with salt and a bit of nutmeg or mace until tender, which is pretty good. I'm pretty sure the directions for thick hunks of radish on the pizza must be for people who already love radishes, though; thin slices makes more sense for people who don't enjoy the bite.
Looks like two radish converts to me. Now we need to see some epic daikon this fall!
I love it when you guys cook!
Whoever the editor is needs a freaking raise
Every intro should start like this lmao
Man I loooove radishes lol. One of my favorites is just sliced with some black salt (the stuff that tastes like eggs), and my husband absolutely hates it - he always runs from the room yelling "It smells like farts!" You guys have me inspired though....I think this weekend I'm going to try roasted radish and morel pasta, since we were lucky enough to find some on our property. 😁
I pick some at lunch today. I am not a fan so I coated in olive oil and then sprinkled with SPG. I sautéed for a bit and then finished with some butter. It actually was not bad. I would eat like that again. I am definitely going to try on pizza this weekend!
Looks delicious!
Radish pizza is definitely not something I’d ever hear 😂😂😂 looks amazing
