Here we have a novice gardener's delight - Radish or Mooli in Hindi. As radish suffers few pest attacks, probably due to its pungency, and grows rapidly after easy germination, it is a go-to vegetable for all first-time gardeners. Belonging to Mustard family, pungency and spiciness in radish comes from natural compounds glucosinolate, myrosinase, and isothiocyanate which are known to control blood sugar levels. Did you know radish greens along with finely chopped radish make for very yummy vegetable recipe? Try it sometime!
