Ingredients
- 1 bunch (about 8-10) radishes
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic (grated or finely minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper (freshly ground)
Directions
Step 1
Wash and trim the radishes, removing the green tops and ends.
Step 2
Grate the radishes using a box grater or a food processor. Place the grated radishes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Discard the liquid.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Use a hand mixer or a spatula to blend until smooth and well-combined.
Step 4
Add the grated radishes, chopped chives, lemon juice, grated garlic, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture.
Step 5
Stir everything together until the radish spread is evenly mixed and creamy.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice if needed.
Step 7
Transfer the radish spread to a serving dish or an airtight container. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Serve chilled with crackers, baguette slices, fresh veggies, or use as a topping for sandwiches.
