Question

Has anyone ever made potato soup with radishes? I was thinking about trying this.  

Answer 1

Yes! I cook the radishes in chicken broth overnight, drain and leave a little bit left, add bacon, celery, half and half and a stick of butter, some oregano and let it warm up a few hours.

Answer 5

Thank you everyone for your input! I think I’m going to give it a try.  

Answer 6

I’ve made a beef stew with them . you can’t tell the difference and the red color cooks off. They also make a great home fry for breakfast!  

Answer 7

Do they lose that sharp, bitter flavour?

@rattlepate993 I have roasted them and also fried them and it takes out the taste.

Radishes will be bitter and your soup will be a weird pink color if you don’t peel them.

Answer 27

I've used radishes and they tasted great. I also used turnips in a roast they tasted just like potatoes. You peel them and cut them up just like potatoes.  

Answer 28

Radishes have almost the exact same consistency. So do rutabagas.

Not with radosh but with turnips. It was delicious

@munro7 only recommendation I have is to make sure you peel them enough and get that core. If not, it's stringy. @peppercorn it turns out  

Answer 32

I fry them in butter and add a handful of cheese when done! Throw in some onion or celery!

Turnip roots are better and sweeter than potatoes
