ingredients
- 18 ounces daikon radishes
- 2 quarts water, from rinsing rice
- 1 piece konbu (2 x 5 inch)
-
Simmering Sauce
- 3 - 3 1⁄3 cups dashi stock
- 3 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
directions
- Cut daikon into 1 1/2 inch thick rounds. Peel. Bevel edges of each slice to prevent the edges of the daikon from breaking up while cooking. Cut a shallow cross into one side of each slice to facilitate cooking.
- In a saucepan, arrange each slice cross-cut side down. Cover with rice water and cook until tender; drain.
- Combine simmering sauce ingredients.
- Place cooked daikon on top of the kombu in a saucepan. Pour simmering sauce over and bring just to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and simmer until soft, about 20 minutes.
- Arrange daikon slices in 4 warmed dishes. Discard konbu. Pour remaining cooking liquid over daikon and serve.
