Radish Cake Ingredients

Preparation

Radish Cake Preparation Directions

1. Prepare the Grits

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the grits and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Butter Poached Turnips

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced turnips and sauté for about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add 1/4 cup of water, cover, and cook for an additional 15 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Prepare the Smoked Chili XO Crunch

In a small bowl, mix together smoked chili oil and fermented chili paste. Toss in any crispy elements you have, such as fried shallots or garlic, to create a crunchy topping.

4. Make the Fermented Chili Butter

In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Stir in the fermented chili paste until well combined and warm.

5. Assemble the Dish

On a plate, spread a base of creamy grits, top with butter poached turnips, drizzle with fermented chili butter, and sprinkle the smoked chili XO crunch. Garnish with fresh arugula on the side.
