During the hot summer months, when high temperatures often reduce appetite, homemade sandwich spreads become a perfect light meal. They provide long-lasting satiety without overloading the digestive system or causing heaviness. This creamy cottage cheese spread with fresh radishes and green onions is quick to prepare and is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys bold, savory flavors.
Freshly ground black pepper enhances the natural sharpness of radishes, adding a pleasant spicy kick while increasing the nutritional value of the spread. Black pepper contains piperine, a biologically active compound known for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. Piperine may also improve the absorption of vitamin C and several other nutrients while supporting healthy digestion.
In addition, black pepper is a source of vitamin C, which contributes to normal immune function, and B vitamins that help maintain the proper functioning of the nervous system and brain.

Ingredients
For 3 servings You will need:
- 250 g (9 oz) cottage cheese (preferably farm-fresh or at least 5% fat);
- 100 g (3.5 oz) fresh radishes;
- 6 green onion stalks;
- 1 garlic clove;
- 1½ tbsp sour cream;

- ½ tsp ground black pepper (or more to taste);
How to make radish cottage cheese spread
Wash the green onions, pat them dry, and finely chop. Wash the radishes thoroughly, remove the stems and root ends, then finely dice them. Alternatively, grate them using a Korean-style julienne grater.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, salt, black pepper, chopped radishes and green onions. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 1–1½ hours to allow the flavors to blend before serving.
Serving suggestions:
This creamy sandwich spread pairs perfectly with white bread, rye bread, sourdough bread, flatbreads, whole-grain crackers, rice cakes and crispbread. For a more attractive presentation, garnish your sandwiches with fresh parsley, sliced tomatoes, cucumber, or sweet bell pepper.
If you enjoy extra heat, add ½ teaspoon of mustard powder, black cumin (Nigella seeds), allspice, or chili pepper to the spread. These premium natural spices, along with many other handcrafted organic products, are always available from the CraftOil online store.
