Diet Recipe – Daikon Tsukemono

Japanese Pickled White Radish

Tsukemono,(pickles) is very famous healthy dish in Japanese cuisine. No Japanese meal is quite complete without a good pickle side dish.The simplest meal is nothing more than a bowl of rice and umeboshi (pickled plum), but tsukemono are also served at the most sophisticated and complex feasts. The pickling process is done in various methods depending on desired flavor and length of storage. Some are preserved for only 1-2 days to 5-10 years.
