ABOUT
Black radish microgreens — grown from Raphanus sativus var. niger — are the most characterful member of the radish microgreen family, carrying a noticeably bolder, earthier heat than their pink or daikon cousins. The cotyledons emerge a deep, saturated green against pale, sturdy stems, and when you bite in, you get that satisfying crisp snap followed by a clean, peppery warmth that lingers just long enough. A small handful scattered over a soft-boiled egg on rye, tucked into a smoked salmon wrap, or tumbled over a warm lentil salad transforms the dish instantly — adding both structure and flavour. Black radish is also one of the easiest microgreens to grow successfully at home: no soaking, rapid germination, and a harvest in under ten days mean you are never more than a week away from a fresh tray.
