Yuzu Daikon Pickles


Ingredients:
1 800g to 1kg daikon (I used Japanese daikon, can be bought from Finest, Donki, Isetan, etc)
Finely julienned peel from 1 yuzu (I bought from Japan)
160g sugar
40g salt
60 to 100cc Japanese rice vinegar (I bought from Donki)

Method:
1. Peel & cut the daikon.
2. Mix the sugar, salt & vinegar well until the sugar & salt are dissolved.
3. Taste the mixture & add more sugar/salt/vinegar if need to.
4. Add the yuzu peel & daikon into the mixture.
5. Store them in a glass container & keep in the fridge. They will taste good after 1 day in the fridge.

Note
1. You may want to use lemon if you cannot find yuzu.
2. Japanese daikon are not bitter. If you use other daikon, I am not sure if they would taste the same.
3. I also squeezed the yuzu juice into the rice vinegar.
