Carrot and Daikon Pickles (Asian style)

21/10/2015 by Gina Leave a Comment

Daikon looks like a large white carrot, and has a very distinctive odour that is similar to sauerkraut and easily recognisable.

These pickles are readily available at most Asian stores, usually in shreds as opposed to chopped. However, they are easy to make yourself, and keep in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.

They are wonderful used in the base of an Asian soup bowl before pouring over your hot soup (add some bean sprouts, coriander, and thinly sliced spring onion too), as well as serving them alongside any Asian dish you choose. They also add a great flavour and crunch to a simple garden salad.
