These were very good. I never ate daikon radishes before but the vendor at the Farmers Market wanted to get rid of the last bunch of daikons he had left so he gave them to me to try. I didn't know how to prepare these so when I took one bite from the daikon I thought they were horrible. I found this recipe and glad I tried it. I added1/4 cup of rice vinegar & 1/4 cup white vinegar, a little bit of mirin, cooking sherry and a little bit of sesame oil plus the rest of the ingredients. I've been munching on them ever since.

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
