What's the best/easiest way to make Radish Roses?

Question

I've tried and failed before.

Answer 1

Here's a great website that has pictures on it to teach you, this way's pretty easy to. Scroll to about the middle of the page that's where they are.

Answer 2

White radish flower (Garnish) For a simple flower garnish cut paper-thin slices across the radish and soak them in salt water (1 tablespoon salt to 1 cup water) for 20 minutes. This makes the radish soft and pliable. Cut each slice from edge to centre, overlap edges and curve to form a cone. Do this with 7 slices. Curve the edge of the circle back to resemble the petal of a flower. Place petals one within the other.

Answer 3

There is no easy way. You need a small, very sharp knife and a steady hand. Make the slices as thin as you can, then soak in ice water until they open up.

Answer 4

A small sharp knife and a steady hand are the best way to do it. Soak them in cold water after and it will open them up . Practice and patients just keep trying it.

Answer 5

Radish roses are immoral because they give feelings of euphoria, which leads to meat eating. Meat eating is the main reason of immorality.

Answer 6

I don't think there is an easy way unfortunately. I think that the key is soaking them in water beforehand.
