Elevate your side dish game with this quick and easy Marinated Radish recipe, a tangy delight that pairs crisp, thinly sliced radishes with a flavorful vinegar-based marinade. Infused with garlic and the optional heat of red pepper flakes, these pickled radishes are perfect for adding a zesty crunch to salads, sandwiches, and charcuterie boards. Ready in just 15 minutes of prep and cooking time, this make-ahead dish benefits from an overnight rest in the fridge to fully absorb the sweet and savory brine. Best of all, this versatile condiment can be stored for up to two weeks, making it a must-have for meal prepping enthusiasts.
Wash the radishes thoroughly under cold running water, then trim the ends and slice them thinly using a sharp knife or mandoline for even pieces.
Peel the garlic clove and smash it gently using the side of a knife. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, and salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Place the sliced radishes in a clean glass jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Add the smashed garlic clove and, if desired, the red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
Pour the slightly cooled vinegar mixture over the radishes in the jar, ensuring that they are fully submerged in the liquid.
Seal the jar tightly and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the jar to the refrigerator and let the radishes marinate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for maximum flavor.
Serve chilled as a garnish, a tangy side dish, or mix into salads for a crisp flavor boost. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
