Radish tops are the leafy greens attached to radishes, often overlooked but highly nutritious. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, they are excellent for supporting immune function, skin health, and bone strength. They also contain fiber, which aids digestion, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron. With a peppery, slightly bitter flavor, radish tops are popular in cuisines worldwide, particularly in Indian, French, and Mediterranean cooking, where they’re used in soups, salads, pestos, or sautéed as a side dish. Low in calories and packed with antioxidants, these greens can help combat inflammation and oxidative stress. However, their slightly sharp taste can be overpowering for some, and in rare cases, they might cause digestive discomfort if consumed in excess. Versatile and sustainable, radish tops transform a normally discarded part into a healthful, flavorful addition to meals.
