Radish, Cucumber and Apple Salad

Serves 3 as Salad.

I made this on a spur of the moment because some lovely radishes were at the market and it turned out amazing. The lovely sweet and sour combo worked very well. Make sure to use nice crisp apples with a sweet/tart bite to them. The colours also make this look very festive. Perfect for a summer salad or to bring to a potluck.

• 2 cucumbers
  
• 6 small - medium radishes
  
• 1 apple
  
• 1/4 c Cider/Sherry/White Wine Vinegar
  
• Sugar
  
• Salt
  

Wash and destem all the radishes and cut off any stringy beards, cut each radish in half. Cut the radishes into thin slices and place in a salad bowl. Cut each cucumber in half and then slice into thin slices and place into the same bowl. Peel the apple, cut into quarters, and remove the core. Cut into thin slices and put into the same bowl.

Drizzle the entire mix with some vinegar of your choice so that all the items are coated. Then, sprinkle with a generous amount of sugar and just a pinch of salt so the sweet and sour is balanced.

This salad should hold for quite a while and will not lose it's crispness but put it under plastic wrap as the apples may brown, even with the acid.
