Best Radishes With Goat Cheese Recipes

CARROT ROULADES WITH RADISH AND HERB GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Pulse radishes in a food processor until finely minced, and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in goat cheese, chives, chervil, and 1 teaspoon salt. Season with pepper. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Using a vegetable peeler, shave carrots lengthwise into thin ribbons. (You will need 36 ribbons, each 8 inches long.) Boil carrot ribbons until softened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath. Drain, then pat dry with paper towels.
• Roll each carrot ribbon, tapering 1 end, to 1/2 inch in diameter. Transfer carrot rolls to a parchment-lined baking sheet with narrow end up.
• Transfer chilled radish mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch plain tip. Pipe about 1/2 teaspoon radish mixture into center of each carrot roll. Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 hour). Garnish with chervil sprigs, and serve immediately.

RADISHES WITH WHIPPED GOAT'S BUTTER & CELERY SALT

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat the goat's butter with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Add the cheese and beat again for 1 min until blended. Scrape into a bowl and leave at room temperature until ready to serve.
• Mix together the celery salt and seeds, and pop into a smaller bowl or saucer alongside the whipped goat's butter.
• To serve, wash the radishes well, then pile onto another plate for dipping and dunking.

FRENCH LENTIL SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE AND ROASTED RADISHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the radishes with 2 tablespoons of the oil on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden brown and just tender, 25 to 30 minutes, flipping them once halfway through the cooking time.
• Whisk the shallot, garlic, thyme leaves, Dijon mustard and vinegar together in a small bowl. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the 1/3 cup of oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Put the roasted radishes, cooked lentils, almonds and dressing in a large bowl and toss to combine. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator and up to overnight.
• Before serving, toss the lentil mixture with the baby arugula. Serve at room temperature topped with the lemon zest and crumbled goat cheese.

LITTLE RADISHES WITH WHIPPED GOAT CHEESE AND TOASTED CUMIN

Steps:

• Wash radishes and radish leaves well. Dry thoroughly. Cut leaves from radishes, leaving 1-inch of stem attached to each radish. Remove any spidery roots. Scatter radish leaves on large plate or platter. Cut radishes in half lengthwise and place on radish greens, cut side up. Place goat cheese in food processor with two teaspoons cold water. Process just until smooth and thick, careful not to over mix. With a butter knife, spread cheese thickly on cut side of each radish, or pipe through a pastry bag. Refrigerate until ready to use. In a small nonstick skillet, cook cumin seeds over medium heat until they begin to darken and exude a fragrant aroma. Add salt and mix well. Sprinkle each radish with cumin-salt mixture.

(Alternatively, transfer mixture to a small heavy-duty sealable plastic bag and press out excess air. Snip off 1 corner, making a small hole.) Cheese mixture may be made 2 days ahead and chilled in bag. Bring cheese mixture to room temperature before proceeding.
• Trim radish tops to 1/2 inch and halve radishes lengthwise. Decoratively pipe mixture onto radish halves.
• Garnish hors d'oeuvres with chervil.
