RADI-SALAT MIT SPECK - GERMAN RADISH SALAD WITH BACON

Steps:

• Clean, peel and wash the white radishes.
• Cut the white radishes into coils with a radish cutter (if you don't have one, just slice them very thinly).
• Divide the coils into about 4 inch long pieces.
• Place the short radish coils into a bowl (set some aside and reserve for garnishing if you desire) and sprinkle with salt.
• Let the radish coils rest for 20- 30 minutes (the salt will draw some juice).
• In the meantime clean, wash and quarter each of the small red radishes.
• Wash, dry and chop the dill weed (before chopping the dill weed pull off some sprigs for decorations).
• Cut the bacon into small cubes or pieces and in a skillet fry the bacon until crunchy and largely drained of its grease; discard grease.
• Pour the oil and vinegar into the bacon in skillet and bring to a short boil.
• Remove the skillet from the stove.
• Pour the radish juice from the white radishes into the skillet to the oil-vinegar-bacon mixture and season with pepper; let mixture cool to warm temperature.
• Add the red radish wedges to the white radish and combine.
• Pour the vinaigrette dressing from the skillet over the radishes and let stand until completely cool.
• Garnish with reserved radish coils and dill weed sprigs.
