Purple Rambo Radishes have more of a radish flavor and spicier bite than other radishes. Most sprouts’ color is deep purple right from the start, with a few remaining green.
These Purple Rambo Radish microgreens make a perfect edible garnish that adds color and spice to any dish. Besides a garnish, these microgreens are great in egg dishes, salads, cold soups, and burgers. In addition, you can use radish microgreens in place of sliced radishes.
As mentioned, the flavor is spicy but not harsh.
