Our vibrant, purple rambo radish microgreens have a bold, spicy, and peppery flavour that packs a punch, similar to mature radishes, but with a lighter, fresher intensity. Their heat is sharp and zesty, providing an exciting burst of flavour to any dish. They are crisp and crunchy, adding both texture and a spicy kick. Rambo radish microgreens taste delicious with:
1. Salads
Rambo radish microgreens are a fantastic addition to salads, offering a spicy, peppery contrast to milder greens like lettuce, spinach, or arugula. They pair well with sweet ingredients like beets, carrots, apples, or pears, which balance their heat. A simple lemon vinaigrette or mustard-based dressing enhances their bold flavour.
2. Sandwiches and Wraps
These microgreens add a nice crunch and spiciness to sandwiches and wraps. They pair well with a variety of fillings such as roast beef, turkey, chicken, or smoked salmon, as well as with avocado or hummus. They also complement cheese sandwiches or wraps with cream cheese, goat cheese, or cheddar, cutting through the richness with their spicy bite.
3. Tacos and Burritos
Rambo radish microgreens are a great garnish for tacos, especially with grilled meats like chicken, beef, or fish, or even vegetarian tacos with roasted vegetables. Their peppery kick complements guacamole, sour cream, and salsas, providing a refreshing balance to the other rich, creamy, or tangy elements.
4. Egg Dishes
The sharp, spicy flavour of rambo radish microgreens adds an exciting contrast to egg dishes. They work particularly well in scrambled eggs, omelets, and frittatas, or as a garnish on poached eggs or soft-boiled eggs. They also pair well with smoked salmon, cheese, and avocado in egg-based dishes.
5. Grilled Meats
The spicy, peppery flavour of rambo radish microgreens makes a wonderful contrast to grilled meats, including steak, pork, chicken, or lamb. Sprinkle them over grilled meats or incorporate them into a wrap or sandwich for a fresh, zesty bite. They also pair well with grilled fish like salmon or tuna, adding brightness to balance the rich flavours of the protein.
6. Cheese Plates
Rambo radish microgreens are a great addition to a cheese platter, where their spicy, peppery notes cut through the richness of creamy cheeses like brie, cream cheese, or goat cheese. They also complement sharper cheeses like cheddar, parmesan, and blue cheese, providing a refreshing, crunchy element to balance the fat and richness.
7. Grain Bowls
Add rambo radish microgreens to grain bowls featuring quinoa, farro, rice, or couscous. Their spicy flavour pairs beautifully with roasted vegetables (such as sweet potatoes, carrots, or beets), beans, or grilled chicken. Pair with a tangy dressing, such as a lemon-tahini or mustard vinaigrette, to enhance the overall flavour.
8. Pasta
Rambo radish microgreens work as a bold garnish for pasta dishes. They can add a zesty crunch to simple pasta dishes with olive oil and garlic or even complement creamy pastas like alfredo. Their peppery flavour contrasts beautifully with rich sauces and creamy textures, offering a fresh, spicy kick to every bite.
9. Sushi and Poke Bowls
These microgreens are a great topping for sushi rolls or poke bowls. The peppery flavor of rambo radish microgreens pairs well with salmon, tuna, or yellowtail, as well as with avocado, cucumber, and seaweed. They provide a fresh contrast to the richness of the fish and the umami of soy sauce and wasabi.
10. Smoothies
For a bold, peppery twist, rambo radish microgreens can be added to green smoothies. Combine them with fruits like mango, pineapple, or orange to balance their heat with sweetness. They're also great in savory smoothies when paired with cucumber, lemon, and a touch of ginger.
11. Soups
Rambo radish microgreens are an excellent garnish for soups, particularly those with a rich, creamy, or brothy base. They add a fresh, spicy note to vegetable soups, potato soups, or miso soup, cutting through the warmth and providing a vibrant contrast to the soft textures of the soup. They also work well with hearty soups like lentil soup or chicken broth-based soups.
12. Roasted Vegetables
Add rambo radish microgreens as a garnish to roasted vegetables like sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, or cauliflower. The spicy, peppery flavour balances the natural sweetness and earthy richness of roasted vegetables, adding brightness and freshness to the dish.
13. Pizza
These spicy microgreens can be added on top of pizza after baking. Their peppery kick pairs well with rich, savoury pizza toppings like prosciutto, sausage, or roasted mushrooms. They also complement goat cheese or mozzarella and can provide a fresh burst of flavour when paired with tomato-based sauces.
14. Dips and Dressings
Rambo radish microgreens are great in creamy dips like guacamole, hummus, or sour cream-based dips. They also work well in mustard-based dressings or vinaigrettes, where their spiciness adds an extra kick. Use them to spice up a tartar sauce, yogurt dip, or ranch dressing.
15. Asian-Inspired Dishes
Rambo radish microgreens are great in Asian-inspired dishes. They pair wonderfully with ramen, dumplings, spring rolls, or stir-fries. Their peppery heat complements the flavours of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, and they add a crisp, spicy texture to these dishes.
