Recipe
Daikon Oroshi
Ingredients:
1 Daikon Radish (White)
Soy sauce (Optional)
Directions:
To make Daikon Oroshi, peel your radishes and put them through a food processor or blender. If you do not have a blender or food processor, use a fine grater and grate your daikon in a circular motion. Once grated, drain the juices being careful to keep enough juice to retain flavor and texture. Removing too much juice will cause the Daikon Oroshi to lose flavor and become dry. Serve with your favorite fried foods, in noodles, or with soup.
