When starting to introduce solid foods to a baby, radishes are usually not the first thing that comes to mind. However, right from the start, this colorful vegetable is sure to surprise baby's taste buds with its tangy and slightly peppery flavor.
How do you find the perfect radishes for your baby at the supermarket? We recommend choosing small to medium-sized radishes that are crisp and firm, with a beautiful bright red or glossy pink color and fresh, green tops. Avoid radishes with blemishes or cracks, and those with yellow or wilted tops. Larger radishes are generally more fibrous and hollow inside.
