I think the smoked flavor adds a lot. I've been eating them with cream cheese on bread and bagels, but am going to have to try it as a radish salad. (or maybe mild spring turnips? I've got some of those!) Thu, 8 Jul 2010 23:25:33 +0000 http://www.breakawaycook.com/blog/2010/07/06/herring-and-radishes-a-marvelously-refreshing-summer-salad/#IDComment85639287
