French Breakfast Radishes with Anchovy Butter are a springtime delight. We grow French Breakfast Radishes and Cherry Belles. We save the Cherry Belles for salads, but the French Breakfast Radishes are their own thing.

I’ve never seen them at the grocery store, but French Breakfast Radishes are abundant at the farmer’s markets in the spring in New England. Grab them if you see them! They’re crunchy and sweet, not as peppery as the radishes you may be used to. The anchovy butter is a simple compound butter that is fantastic on just about anything.

French Breakfast Radishes with Anchovy Butter belong on your crudité plate. But they’re just as delicious as a simple, peasant meal with a hunk of sourdough bread. So simple, so good.
