Zlata, the Polish Radish

This unique and unusual variety of radish is native to Poland. Its skin is a light tan to bright yellow; the inner flesh is bright white.

Crunchy, juicy, and somewhat spicy (though not too strong), the Zlata radish is most frequently served as an appetizer or a snacking vegetable. It can also be sliced and added to a variety of dishes such as egg dishes, meats, and vegetable side dishes.

Fun fact: “Zlata” means “gold” in Czech.
