radish is a crisp, peppery root vegetable from the Brassicaceae (mustard) family, scientifically named Raphanus sativus. It has a swollen taproot that can be spherical, cylindrical, or tapered, and its skin varies in color from white to red, pink, purple, yellow, or even black, although the flesh is typically white. While commonly grown for its edible root, some varieties are cultivated for their edible leaves or oil-rich seeds.
