Radish Dip

Hey everyone! I saw this dip in the May 2012 Martha Stewart Living and it caught my eye right away,
I love radishes and dill! A little lemon zest never hurt anything either...
 Lovin' the fun little "toasts" that I found near the deli at the Walmart, so cute for appetizers.
If you're looking for a nice fresh dip that's different, I do suggest trying this!

Radish Dip
1 lb radishes (about 25) julienned, plus more for serving
1 1/4 C sour cream
3 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1 tsp lemon zest
3 Tblsp fresh lemon juice (approx 1 1/2 lemons)
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/3 C chopped fresh dill
-Mix all in the morning and refrigerate until ready to serve.
-Serve with toasts, crackers and sliced radishes.

Notes:
  • The recipe is easily cut in half.
  • This is a mild dip that really does get better the longer it marinates. The radishes add crunch and the feta gives it a bit of a salty bite. I think chopped green olives would be good in this too.
  • While it needs to be stored in the fridge, the dip is most flavorful at room temperature.
  • The only thing I did differently was, I used the grating disc of my food processor (just add the radish not the juice)-julienned radishes Martha... really??? 
 Have a happy day:@)
