Buying advice
Trim the radishes, halve or leave whole, season with salt, butter, and a little honey in the bag, and cook at 183°F for 20-30 minutes. After the bath, toss in a hot pan with butter, chives, and a splash of lemon for 2 minutes. Serve alongside steak, roast chicken, or in salads. They hold well in the bag — a great make-ahead side.
