CSA member Jane contributed this recipe. She says, “As the title suggests, this recipe is quick! It’s an easy way to spruce up your radish to enjoy on salads, tacos, or all on its own (I like to just snack on them!). The brine can be used for salad dressings as well (especially if you use apple cider vinegar).”
