Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • French baguette or other artisan bread
  • 1 stick High-quality butter, softened
  • Radishes
  • to taste Fleur de Sal or other coarse sea salt
  • to taste Freshly cracked pepper

Method
 

  1. Slice baguette into approximately 1/4" slices. Toasting is optional – I find this tartine is best when the bread is not toasted, but if you're looking for some warmth or extra crunch, feel free to try toasting.
  2. Spread a generous portion of butter onto each slice of baguette. The butter shouldn't be melting entirely into the bread. You really want to taste the butter in each bite.
  3. Thinly slice radishes into at least 1/8" thick slices. You want them to be thick enough to have a satisfying crunch.
  4. Sprinkle on fleur de sal or other coarse sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
  5. Serve with a chilled French rosé!

Notes

This tartine is inspired by the French classic Tartine Radis-Beurre, emphasizing the importance of using high-quality ingredients.
