Radishes should be eaten as soon as possible after they are picked as they don’t store well and soon become soft.

If you need to store them they can be kept in the fridge for a few days.

We eat the root of the radish plant.

The radish plant is a member of the brassica family – the same family as cabbage plants..

Radishes come in many different shapes, sizes and colours.
