Although it takes some time for preparation this soup provides a full meal and keeps well in the fridge for several days. |
Served
This light and creamy soup is surprisingly mild tasting and refreshing. However, it is also very filling. If you like fresh crunchy radishes then this will be a welcome addition to your summer menu. |

Klaus These two bunches of radishes and greens just lend themselves to cooking and eating. I
used all the greens and radishes but only two midsized baking potatoes. The tofu
sweet cream provided a smooth consistency to the soup enhancing the mild radish
flavor. A total of 6 portions of 2 cups soup each resulted from the big radish
bundles. |
Aren’t the radishes affording?
