Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams daikon radish (white radish)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon dried chili flakes
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 stalks green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon roasted sesame seeds
Instructions
Peel and julienne 500 grams of daikon radish into thin, even slivers. Place the slivers in a large mixing bowl.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over the radish slivers and gently massage to distribute the salt evenly. Let the radish sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
After 10 minutes, rinse the radish slivers under cold water to remove excess salt. Drain thoroughly and gently press to remove excess water. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of sugar, 2 tablespoons of light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, and 0.5 teaspoons of dried chili flakes. Stir until the sugar dissolves and ingredients are well mixed.
Add the minced garlic and finely chopped green onions to the dressing. Stir to combine.
Pour the dressing over the drained radish slivers. Toss the salad gently until the radish is evenly coated with the sauce.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of roasted sesame seeds on top. Mix lightly and transfer the salad to a serving plate.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing side dish.
