Spring Radish and Herb Butter Tartine
Crisp spring radishes layered over herb-flecked butter on good crusty bread, finished with flaky salt — a simple French-inspired open-faced snack that celebrates the first radishes of the year.
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Total Time 15 minutes mins
- 1 bunch fresh radishes, thinly sliced
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (chives, dill, or parsley), chopped
- 4 slices good crusty bread
- Flaky salt, to taste
Let the butter soften, then stir in the chopped herbs and a small pinch of salt.
Thinly slice the radishes. For extra crispness, soak them in ice water for a few minutes, then pat dry.
Spread the herb butter generously over the slices of toasted or fresh crusty bread.
Fan the radish slices over the butter, sprinkle with flaky salt, and serve right away.
