BAKED RADISH CHIPS
I found this recipe on CalorieCount.com. by "Robin AD". I thought it was interesting, and though I haven't tried it yet, I will, and will post a picture and let you know how it turned out. I'm sure this could be done with other vegetables, too - carrots, jicama, potatoes, turnips, zucchini - the possibilities seem endless.

Steps:
- 1. Thinly slice radishes. Blanch in boiling water 3 minutes, or steam in microwave 3 minutes. Plunge cooked radishes into ice water, then drain on paper towels.
- 2. Place radishes in a bowl or bag and sprinkle on spices. Toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer on metal baking pans.
- 3. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes; flip the chips, then bake for another 10 minutes.
- 4. When I do these, I will be placing them on racks over the pans, rather than directly on the pans. This may eliminate the turning step. It may also cause them to cook faster, so I will be watching carefully to prevent burning.
Tips:
- Use a mandoline slicer to cut the radishes as thinly as possible. This will help them crisp up in the oven.
- Toss the radish slices in a mixture of olive oil, salt, and pepper before baking. This will help them develop a golden brown color and a flavorful crust.
- Bake the radish chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
- Keep an eye on the radish chips while they are baking. They can burn easily, so it is important to remove them from the oven as soon as they are golden brown.
- Let the radish chips cool completely before serving. This will help them crisp up even more.
Conclusion:
Radish chips are a healthy and delicious snack that can be enjoyed on their own or as part of a larger meal. They are a great way to use up radishes that are starting to go bad, and they are also a fun and easy way to get kids to eat their vegetables. With so many different ways to make them, there is sure to be a radish chip recipe that everyone will enjoy.
