A source of vitamins B and C, calcium, it also has the ability to cleanse the liver and increase bile secretion. Which aids digestion. That is why black radish is often recommended for digestive disorders (constipation, bloating, etc.). As its famous name Raphanus Sativus suggests, it promotes good intestinal transit due to its high water and fiber content. So much so that black radish powder is also included in capsules prescribed in herbal medicine.
Black radishes, the first variety of radish grown by humans, are similar to turnips in their pungent flavor and firm flesh. It is often eaten raw. To appreciate it, choose it smooth and firm. Peel it first before slicing it into thin slices. Then add a little cream or cottage cheese sprinkled with Provencal herbs to soften the piquant taste, or vice versa, a squeeze of lemon if you like spicy flavors!
Black radish can also be cooked hot, in the form of chips, in soup or puree, and why not with a raw fish salad. A small drink made with black radish juice soothes coughs and awakens vitality. Feel free to prepare it in the evening to enjoy these calming properties. Or for lunch as a salad to regulate your appetite, replacing the usual carrot or cucumber sticks.
