German Winter Radish (Ostergruss) - These radishes have a neutral flavor well-suited for raw or cooked applications, including roasting, frying, braising, grilling, sautéing, and steaming or blending into smoothies or juiced. Ostergruss radishes can also be chopped and added to salads, sliced and layered into sandwiches with butter, or spiral cut and sprinkled with salt and herbs. Beyond raw preparations, Ostergruss radishes can be roasted to develop savory notes, sauteed into eggs, simmered into soups, grilled, or sliced lengthwise and deep-fried. When cooked, Ostergruss radishes will soften and become rich and sweet, complementing roasted meats and vegetables. In Germany, Ostergruss radishes are popularly braised with other root vegetables as a savory side dish and are pickled for extended use, served as a tangy condiment. Green Leafy tops are also edible and can be incorporated into recipes similar to mustard greens, primarily stir-fried, braised, sauteed, or steamed.
