The sliced baguette with butter, radishes, and sea salt is a classic French dish that originated in the countryside of France. Farmers used to snack on this simple yet flavorful dish after a long day of work in the fields. It is a favorite appetizer in French cafes and is often served as an alternative to traditional cheese boards.

  • Slice the radishes thinly and evenly to ensure the flavors are well balanced.
  • Use flaky sea salt like fleur de sel or kosher salt to enhance the flavors of the dish.

Tips for presenting the dish:

  • Arrange the sliced baguette neatly on a platter or wooden board.
  • Garnish with fresh chives or other herbs for added color and flavor.
  • Serve the dish with a side of unsalted butter and a bowl of flaky sea salt, allowing guests to customize their canapГ©s to their taste.
  • Pair the dish with a crisp white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay to balance the flavors.
