(Raphanus sativus).  40-50 days. First noted as early as 1770, these uniquely shaped old-time radishes disguise themselves as a carrot. As bright as a buttercup, these are the most brilliant yellow-skinned radishes we have ever seen. Once a widespread and popular crop in the Austro-Hungarian empire, these golden yellow beauties are now rare treasures. A culinary marvel, it has a soft mellow flavor when raw and pairs perfectly for pickling and fermenting into krauts and kimchis. In Hungary, they’re often simmered into stews like Lecsó, a tomato and pepper casserole spiced with paprika.
