Description

And easy and delicious way to eat those radish greens that are full of nutrients. 


Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups of chopped, well-washed radish greens (super packed)
  • 1 scallion
  • 1 green garlic (or 1 garlic clove)
  • zest of one organic lemon
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3040 grams pine nuts
  • 1/8 cup filtered water
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • lemon juice to taste

Instructions

  1. Toast the pine nuts in a skillet, on very low heat, until golden and fragrant. Keep an eye on them as they can burn easily. It will take about 7 minutes. Let them cool down. 
  2. Add all the ingredients to a high-power blender and blend until all creamy. Taste and add more salt, pepper, and lemon juice if necessary. 
  3. If you want a more drizzling consistency, add more water or extra virgin olive oil. 
  4. Store in the fridge in a closed jar. Use in salads, as a dipping sauce or green sauce for grilled meats and chicken, or roasted vegetables. Check the post above for a recipe suggestion.
