Ingredients

Main Ingredients (4 servings)

  • Daikon Radish 400g

Seasonings

  • Salt 8g
  • [A] Vinegar 2 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 2 tbsp
  • [A] Kombucha (Kelp Tea) 2 tsp

Steps

  1. Peel the skin off the 400g Daikon Radish.
  2. Using a slicer, thinly slice the Daikon Radish into 1mm thick rounds.
  3. For the remaining Daikon Radish that cannot be fully sliced with the slicer, slice it thinly vertically or into half-moons.
  4. Mix 8g Salt evenly into the sliced Daikon Radish.
  5. Let the salted Daikon Radish sit for 30 minutes to 1 hour. (Key Tip!) Drawing out moisture from the daikon radish thoroughly allows the seasonings to penetrate and creates a crunchy texture.
  6. Once the Daikon Radish has softened and released its water, rinse off the salt under running water and squeeze out the moisture firmly by hand.
  7. In a bowl, combine [A] 2 tbsp Vinegar, 2 tbsp Sugar, and 2 tsp Kombucha (Kelp Tea), and mix well.
  8. Add the squeezed Daikon Radish to the prepared [A] seasoning mixture and combine.
  9. Arrange the Daikon Radish in a storage container, spreading it out. Marinate to ensure even flavor penetration. (Key Tip!) Arranging each slice carefully allows the delicious flavor to permeate evenly throughout.
  10. Let the Daikon Radish in the storage container marinate for at least 1 hour. Consume within one week.
