Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the baguette into pieces about 1/2 inch thick and arrange on a baking sheet. Toast for 5-8 minutes until golden and crisp.
  2. Soften the unsalted butter at room temperature, then combine with minced chives in a bowl, mixing until evenly distributed to create a creamy chive butter.
  3. Remove toasted bread from the oven, let cool briefly, then generously spread the chive butter on each slice.
  4. Thinly slice the radishes and layer evenly on top of the buttered toasts, mixing different types for added visual contrast.
  5. Sprinkle flaky sea salt over each toast, and optionally add chopped chives and edible flowers for garnish before serving immediately.
