What does one make with a $270 radish?

Ages ago, Bill and I had discussed our grand celebration of the garden's first harvest. Little did we expect it was going to be on a Tuesday night during an exceptionally hectic week. Nevertheless, we decided to celebrate and create a special dish fit for our first crop.

That dressed up a salad like a bow tie dresses up a tux :) We served this with...



Proscuitto-wrapped, pan-seared cod with a modified (LOW FAT!) vichyssoise (a fancy french potato and leek puree for those not in the know- like Bill about three hours ago).

Oh, and we had saved this bottle for this very occasion:



(yes, that is a very blurry cooler with Moet et Chandon White Star)

All in all, a very nice cap to a regular Tuesday night :)
