Root Gratin

This side has appeared on our Thanksgiving table for almost 35 years, and is a favorite of adults and kids alike. Linda Olney's recipe, included in the Time Life Good Cook series, is the inspiration for this dish that I have tweaked to be more appealing to the crowd that professes a dislike of turnips. Salting the vegetables prior to assembling the recipe leeches the bitterness out of the roots, and the substitution of Ritz cracker crumbs to top the gratin adds a delicate sweetness. - Bevi

Sauteed Parsnip Ribbons with Nigella Seed

A few weeks ago I needed nigella seeds for a recipe. They only came in a giant bag. I didn't want the bag to languish only to be used the 3x a year when we make Indian food at home. I wanted to find another use for them besides the traditional ones. Additionally, I love vegetables in ribbon form, rutabaga, asparagus, carrots, zucchini, you name it.

Carrot Fries

My boys love these carrot fries hot out of the oven. I like baking them as it eliminates the messy splattering that results from the typical preparation of French fries --frying. http://www.elanaspantry.com/carrot-french-fries/

mummy’s yummy tomato salad

This is an incredibly simple recipe. Almost child’s play. All you really need is perfectly-ripe, but firm and juicy tomatoes at room temperature — they are the star ingredient here. My mom has been making these ever since we were children. And I have never had this exact combination anywhere else. It's an excellent starter on a warm summer evening. You can also serve it over a piece of toasted bread in the spirit of a bruschetta. The bread soaks the briny solution oozing out of the tomatoes and tastes heavenly!

Crushed Cauliflower

This is comfort food. It is overcooked but with restraint which gives it a flavor that is deep, resonant and all cauliflower. I can stand at the stove and eat all of it right out of the pan, so keep that in mind before you taste for seasoning. What happens is you get these really caramelly crunchier bits and these bigger pieces that are creamy and tender. It is really, really good with prime rib, leg of lamb or as I said all by itself while standing at the stove.

Steamed Cauliflower with EVOO and Lemon Juice

This is a super-simple, healthy way to eat a lovely vegetable. My mother is from Spain, and this is how she always prepared cauliflower. When we moved to the States and I saw the gloppy, cheese-covered version of how cauliflower is served in most American households, I was slightly horrified.... My children love this dish, it takes just minutes to make and it goes with just about everything....

Simple Roasted Cauliflower

We had this at a dinner party and it was so good that everyone wanted more. Luckily there are few ingredients, so the hostess just popped more in the oven. She used fontina which was good but I like the parmesan more.

CONFETTI CAULIFLOWER

I love the bright green and red colors of this appetizer. It looks gorgeous in the middle of a table. The cauliflowers at the farmers' market are a stunning display of bright colors...orange, green and purple. Here I have dressed up a plain white one so that it holds its own for gaudiness and especially for taste!

Laptop Fennel and Radish Salad

First of all I will say up front that I haven't prepared this yet, but I have a cooking job scheduled next week and I'm working from my laptop in a hotel room. I work like this frequently. I'm preparing a porchetta which I can make in my sleep but I must have a salad to satisfy the vegan sect (I've heard they are going to be burning copies of "Nose to Tail" this weekend). But I think fennel and radish will complement the porchetta straight off the food truck. Here's what I'm thinking:

Radish and Cress Side

This is a homage to every Central and South American co-worker I ever had the privilege of working with in a kitchen. To the things they taught me about their food, culture and heritage from papusas to tamales to lorca, the food is and will always be kick ass. The one thing I learned early on is food south of the American border is more often than not, not served with refried beans and rice. Thank god! This is a salad and the variations are infinite, where the greens maybe different but the radishes are the anchor. You could use cabbage, wilted with a little salt for an hour or so or any peppery green. Make that enchilada or tamale pie and serve this as the side, you won't regret it, trust me.

Radish Crostini

My mother is responsible for turning me from a picky eater into an adventurous foodie. She made this for me once as a simple snack with radishes from her garden and farm fresh butter - it was a food epiphany for me. Radishes that fresh taste so peppery - the whole thing was heaven. Now I make it all the time. I know it's not even really a recipe...but it's so good that I don't really care.

Radish Truffle Butter

While dining at Pike Brewery in Pike Place Market (Seattle), we were served raw radishes to spread butter on and to dip in truffle salt. I was never a big radish fan but this combination of ingredients was a revelation to me. Later I saw a recipe for plain radish butter in a Lee Brothers cookbook and thought I would combine these two experiences into one unique recipe. The result was sublime especially when added to steak or seasoning corn on the cob. - SavorySweetLife

Rootin’ Tootin’ Radish Salad

This is an play on tatziki sauce. Here slices of radishes are enveloped in soft clouds of sweet and creamy sour cream. This dish can be served along side of grilled kabobs, or eaten by its self. You can use greek yogurt instead of sour cream, it will add a bit of tanginess.
