Got my hands on some wonderfully young and mild radishes at the greenmarket on Wednesday. Radishes aren't my favorite vegetable and yet there's two things I love to do with them: 1, put them in a chopped salad (as I will do tonight) and 2, make this sandwich.
Radish with Raw Butter and Salt on Baguette
Butter both sides of the baguette with raw butter.
Use a mandolin* to thinly slice a big radish.
Arrange the radish on the bread, salting in between layers. Use more salt if you're using unsalted butter, and less salt if using salted butter.
That's it, four ingredients! It's so simple, and you may not think it would taste great, but believe me, it's a wonderfully refreshing, tasty sandwich! Great on a hot afternoon, like today.
*Mandolins need not be big complicated things with lots of parts, I use this one and it makes prepping vegetables so easy! It also makes these radishes so delicate and wonderful to eat... they've got a little crunch but are soft as well! The salt especially makes them melt a little...

I always like radishes in my salad, but I don't bother with buying them. Maybe I'll change my mind.
