Purple radishes are a good source of vitamins and fiber. The violet-hued daikon root is rich in vitamins C, A, E and B6. It is also rich in minerals like potassium, calcium, iron and magnesium. The phytonutrients responsible for the root’s purple hue are anthocyanins, which contain high amounts of antioxidants. Daikon radish is considered a diuretic, and is helpful as a detoxifier for the kidneys. Because of the low caloric value and high nutrient value, daikon radish is considered a superfood.

Purple radishes add color to any dish, whether it be a crudité platter or a green salad. The peppery root vegetable is ideal for serving raw, either sliced or coarsely grated using a special Japanese grater, for ‘daikon oroshi’. The coarsely grated Purple radish can be added to dishes of soba noodles or sashimi. The Korean radish can also be thinly sliced and pickled (tsukemono). Cooking Purple radish can tone down the spicy taste of the root. Add quartered Purple radish to soups or braising liquids. Purple radishes are long keepers and will overwinter in a cold, humid environment for up to three months. Prepared Purple radish will keep up to two weeks in the refrigerator.
Wayward Seed Farm

Wayward Seed Farm

Welcome to Wayward Seed Farm, a certified organic farm with a passion for providing fresh heritage and heirloom vegetables to the people of Central Ohio. Wayward Seed was founded in the late spring of 2006 as a farm-to-restaurant project on one acre in Sandusky County, where we grew over 100 different varietals of food in an attempt to find the best products for Central Ohio chefs.

In addition to serving restaurants, we soon saw a real need in the community for a direct connection between consumers searching for honestly grown produce and the farms that provide it. And so began our CSA program, which is now the anchor of our farming operation. Today, Wayward Seed is based in Central Ohio, farming land in both Madison and Union counties.
