I think it must have been Lucy who first put me onto the idea of using miso instead of parmesan. Genius. White miso has a soft enough flavour that it doesn’t dominate, while providing plenty of that umami deliciousness which you’d otherwise be getting from parmesan.

As braises go, this one is very quick. You’re not dealing with short ribs or brisket here. The radishes spend almost as much time soaking in a bowl of water beforehand - to loosen any trapped dirt - as they do cooking. They get only a brief simmer in butter and stock, and then you reduce the liquid to a glaze that coats them. You can use any kind or color of radish you want, but if you use red ones, there’s a nice side effect: they give some of their color to the cooking liquid, which goes rosy, and they themselves wind up the color of cotton candy.
