Can I prepare this salad ahead of time?

You can prep the ingredients ahead of time, but it's best to dress the salad just before serving to maintain the crispness of the radishes. Store the radishes and dressing separately to keep them fresh.

What should I serve with the Crisp Radish Salad?

This salad pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, fish, or any protein of your choice. Additionally, it complements a light pasta dish or can stand alone as a refreshing lunch.

Where can I find fresh radishes?

Fresh radishes can typically be found at local farmers' markets, grocery stores, or even in your garden. Look for firm, colored radishes, avoiding any that appear wilted or soft.

What can I substitute for Parmesan cheese?

If you're looking for a substitute, crumbled feta or goat cheese can add a delicious tang. Additionally, a dairy-free cheese can be used for a vegan version, keeping flavor in mind.

How long will leftover salad keep in the fridge?

Leftover salad can be stored in an airtight container for up to one day, although it is freshest when consumed immediately after preparation. If stored, keep the dressing separate until serving.
