White Radish 白蘿蔔


Some call this daikon but it isn't. They look almost identical but daikon is from Japan and this is Chinese. Chinese white radish 白蘿蔔 tends to be sweeter and less shape then daikon. This is a family classic--dace fish paste is made into a pancake and then cut into stripes like the radish and cooked together with a little ginger, salt and water until the radish is sweet and tender.
