Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 350 g radishes or 350 g daikon radishes
• 350 g carrots

• 1 teaspoon dashi powder, dissolved in
• 1 tablespoon hot water
• 1 tablespoon mirin
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• salt

Recipe

• 1 cut the carrot and daikon into the thinest strips you can; i use a zester to do this and it works really well.
• 2 sprinkle the vegetables with the half teaspoon of salt and allow to stand in a colander 10-15 minutes or until limp.
• 3 transfer to a bowl.
• 4 mix the remaining ingredients together and pour over the vegetables.
• 5 taste for salt.
