You're looking at a slice of watermelon radish (Heron Pond Farm) topped with herbed fromage frais (Brookford farm), carrot ribbons (HPF), diced apple (Cider Works), slivers of red onion (Meadow's Mirth), and sprigs of baby greens (HPF), garnished with chopped hickory-smoked almonds and a very light touch of cracked peppercorn. I finished the whole bite with a drizzle of honey-dijon vinaigrette.
These make for very user-friendly appetizers, as the radish slice folds nicely when picked up. Not only are they easy to eat, they're easy to make. They're also naturally gluten-free, loaded with local goodness, low in calories, crunchy, creamy, tangy and tasty! And, well, quite easy to look at, I'd say. Sring IS in the air. :).
