It's ICE cold water, preferably with ice cubes in it!. Try also giving them 10 minutes inside the freezer while they're still in the water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Ice cold water but make sure your slice marks on the radishes are thin!. If you cut too much into the center, the "petals" will be too thick to open!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
