Marinated Daikon 100g Clearspring Organic

Clearspring Pickled Daikon is an extremely healthy and versatile food, one of the quintessential vegetables in the Japanese diet. Known as "Takuan" in Japan, it is made using time-honoured rural methods, without any colourings or additives. The daikon root is simply pickled in rice bran and is rich in B-vitamins and lactobacilli. In rural Japanese homes, pickled daikon is prepared every autumn and enjoyed throughout the winter. Daikon, a large white radish shaped like a carrot, has a crisp and slightly peppery taste, milder than horseradish. Pickled daikon is typically served sliced alongside miso soup, rice, or nori-maki. It can also be used in sandwiches as a substitute for pickled gherkins or to balance oily dishes.
