  • Daikon radish 600g
  • Ginger 15g
  • Snow peas 8 pods

Seasonings

  • [A] Water 250cc
  • [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 4.5 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 4.5 tbsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 3 tbsp

Steps

  1. Peel thedaikon radish thickly.
  2. Cut thedaikon radish (600g) into 2cm thick half-moon shapes.
  3. Place the cutdaikon radish and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to medium heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until tender. [Key Tip!] Starting the daikon in cold water and simmering over medium heat will make it tender.
  4. Thinly slice theginger (15g).
  5. Trim the strings from thesnow peas (8 pods).
  6. Thoroughly pat theyellowtail fillets (4 pieces) dry with paper towels.
  7. Cut theyellowtail fillets into bite-sized pieces.
  8. Drain the pre-simmereddaikon radish in a colander.
  9. In a pot, combine [A] Water 250cc, Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 4.5 tbsp,Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 4.5 tbsp,Soy Sauce 3 tbsp,Sugar 1.5 tbsp, and the thinly slicedginger.
  10. Bring the liquid in the pot to a boil.
  11. Once boiling, add the bite-sizedyellowtail pieces, ensuring they do not overlap.
  12. Reduce to low heat, cover with a drop lid, and simmer for about 10 minutes. [Key Tip!] Simmer the yellowtail separately from the daikon to prevent it from breaking apart.
  13. In a separate pot, combine [B] Water 800cc,Soy Sauce 5 tbsp,Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 5 tbsp,Sugar 2 tbsp,Kombu (Dried Kelp) 5g, and the draineddaikon radish.
  14. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce to low heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  15. Add about 100cc of the yellowtail simmering liquid to thedaikon radish pot and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes. [Key Tip!] Adding the yellowtail's flavorful broth to the daikon infuses it with the fish's taste.
  16. Simmer over medium heat until the yellowtail simmering liquid thickens slightly, then turn off the heat.
  17. Add thesnow peas to thedaikon radish pot and cook for 1-2 minutes until tender.
  18. Once thesnow peas are cooked, remove them with some of the simmering liquid for plating.
  19. Turn off the heat for thedaikon radish and let it sit until cooled to allow the flavors to fully penetrate. [Key Tip!] Cooling the daikon once allows the flavors to deeply infuse into the center.
  20. Thinly slice thekombu (dried kelp) that was in the daikon radish pot.
  21. Arrange the yellowtail,daikon radish, and thinly slicedkombu (dried kelp) in a serving dish, and garnish with thesnow peas to finish.
