It helps prevent clot formation and reduce blood pressure. It may benefit weight loss and offer protection against cancer. Better to love it 👍 Yes it is totally not a food to take it out with you. Something you want to enjoy at home! BTW, once there was Natto with no smell but I don't see it anymore. Maybe people thought they don't want to spend extra budget on it?!

Daikon Radish Steak | Japanese Cooking Video Recipe

Juicy tasty yet delicious. Very easy to make. Perfect for vegan/vegetarian people as well. This recipe works with turnip, too. Quick and easy way to use up radishes 😋



Smoky flavor of pan fried Daikon is very appetizing. Better pan fried since soy sauce is easy to burn. Microwave or parboil Daikon first to cook faster 😉

My daughter planted purple Daikon so I used it. You can of course use white one 👍

--------------------------------- 

Daikon Radish Steak (Recipe)


Difficulty: Easy
Time: 10min
Number of servings: 4

Ingredients
500g (1.1lb) Daikon radish
A
* 1 tbsp. Sake (or white wine is ok)
* 1 tbsp. Mirin (sweet Sake)
* 1 tbsp. soy sauce
chopped green onion
cooking oil

Directions:
1. Cut Daikon radish into 1.5cm (0.5inch) thick round slices. Make cross incisions on both sides so that they soak flavor well. Microwave at 500w for 5 minutes. You can parboil Daikon with Kome no Togijiru (or water with a tablespoon of rice) for 15 minutes (it makes Daikon clear colored and less bitter). Drain well and remove excess water with paper towel.
2. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan. Cook both sides of Daikon on medium until slightly browned.
3. Dress with A until shiny fragrant (it turns bitter if you burn too much but it is tasty in this way, it is up to your preference).
4. Place on a dish, and garnish with green onions to finish.

* Instead of Teriyaki sauce, you can simply season with salt and pepper! It is delicious, too.
