I love the idea of radishes. I just can't stand the horrible sulfury/bitter taste. I tried numerous varieties in the last several years and in 2020 must have grown a dozen different. I love the idea of being able to rack off a crop in a month but the end result is unusable to me. I'm sure I'm not the only one as I couldn't even give away the mounds of radishes I harvested last year. They ended up making compost.

I'm ready to give up on them for good. But I also don't want to leave avenues unexplored. So, for those of you who might eat them but not like the taste, are there ways to make them more palatable?
Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
