Sweet Pickled Daikon Radish

Still not sure what to do with that Daikon radish from last week? Try this Daikon Radish recipe from shareholder Tanya (available for taste testing during the pick-up) Ingredients: 1 cup rice vinegar 1 cup water 1 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon turmeric 1 pound daikon radish 1/4 cup kosher salt Preparation: In a small saucepan over medium heat add the vinegar, water, sugar, and turmeric. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from heat and allow it to cool. Meanwhile, peel the daikon radish and slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds. (If your daikon is very large, slice the rounds into semicircles.) Place in a colander with salt and mix well. Place the colander over a bowl and let drain for 1 hour. Rinse the salt off with a couple of changes of water and dry the daikon well. Put into a sterilized glass jar. Pour the cooled brine through a coffee filter (or a cheesecloth lined strainer) into the jar to cover the radish slices. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Will keep for about 2 weeks. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/tyler-florence/sweet-pickled-daikon-radish-recipe.html
