New Year's Dish Red & White Namasu Salad
- 1/4 Daikon radish
- 1/4 Carrot
- 3 tbsp Vinegar (grain vinegar)
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 1 dash Salt
- 1 tbsp Water
- Cut the daikon radish and carrot into thin slices.
- Use a mandoline to slice as thinly as possible.
- The ratio of daikon radish to carrot should be around 5:1.
- If you add too much carrot, the color won't be balanced, so adjust the amounts.
- Salt both the daikon radish and the carrot and lightly massage in the salt.
- Leave them sit for a while.
- When they have wilted, squeeze tightly to squeeze out the water.
- Mix the seasonings (vinegar, sugar, salt, water).
- Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
- Add the daikon radish and carrot to the mixed seasonings and mix well.
- Put into an airtight container and refrigerate.
- After about 10 minutes, the flavors will be blended and it will be delicious.
- Adjust the marinating time as you like.
- I served the salad in a hollowed out yuzu citrus and garnished with a little yuzu peel (cut in the shape of pine needles).
- The salad is also delicious with a squeeze of yuzu juice.
