This dish
came about because I had a lot of Daikon
– they are very large radishes!
After a
little research, I came up with a Japanese style salad which is apparently
often eaten at New Year. It's a simple
crunchy fresh little dish.
Ingredients:
Daikon
Radishes
Carrots –
both purple and orange
Ginger – 1
tblsp grated
Vinegar –
white in colour – 4 tblsp
Salt – 1
tblsp
Sugar – 1
tblsp
Cut all
your vegetables into similar sized matchsticks – consistency not being my
strong point this was a bit of a fail.
Rest the
vegetables in vinegar and water and then when they are all cut drain them and
salt them.
Then add
the other ingredients to finish your salad.
I love radishes, especially when they're in season in the spring. But I'd eat this salad any time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI know several vegetarians who would love this side dish.
ReplyDeletePerfect for the upcoming holiday spreads. I like to nibble beforehand and this would be a healthy alternative.
