Radish and Watercress Salad

  • Prep 15 min
  • Total 15 min

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces watercress
  • 3 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 12 radishes, sliced

Steps

  • 1
    Remove tough stems from watercress; break leaves into bite-size pieces. Arrange watercress on plates.
  • 2
    Mix oil, vinegar, salt and pepper; pour over radishes and toss. Spoon radish mixture onto watercress.

  • Watercress gets its name from the fact that it grows in and around streams and brooks. A member of the mustard family, this crisp, leafy green has a slightly bitter and peppery flavor.
  • Use extra-virgin olive oil for the best and brightest flavor. Because this salad is never heated, the fruity flavor of the extra-virgin oil will shine.
