Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices artisan sourdough bread
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 bunch radishes (about 1 cup thinly sliced)
- 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt, plus extra for finishing
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- If using, lightly toast the sourdough slices until they are firm but not hard.
- In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with the optional lemon zest and half of the chopped chives. Mix until just combined.
- Spread a generous layer of the prepared butter evenly over each slice of toasted bread.
- Arrange the thinly sliced radishes over the buttered bread. Overlap the slices slightly for better coverage.
- Sprinkle each tartine evenly with the flaky sea salt. Use more salt than you think you need for texture.
- Garnish with the remaining fresh chives, if using.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use high-fat, European-style butter for the best flavor in this simple preparation.
- For a slightly different texture, you can whip the softened butter with a fork until light before spreading.
- Select radishes that are firm and crisp; trim the ends before slicing very thinly.
