Organic White Radish / Daikon • 1 Piece (~200g)
Daikon, or white radish, is a root vegetable known for its mild flavor and crunchy texture. Predominantly used in Asian cuisines, it adds a refreshing note to soups, stews, pickles, and salads. Daikon is low in calories yet high in nutrients, offering significant amounts of vitamin C, potassium, and phosphorus. It's also known for its potential benefits in aiding digestion, reducing inflammation, and fighting off infections.
Storage Tips: To keep daikon fresh, place it in a perforated plastic bag and store in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. It should last for a week or two. For longer storage, daikon can be pickled or even frozen - though its texture will change with freezing.
Note: Compared to the common red radish, daikon has a milder, less peppery flavor. It's also much larger in size, and has a more versatile texture that holds up well to various cooking methods.
