Recipe Description

Classic Vegan Namasu is a traditional Japanese salad known for its simplicity and elegance. This refreshing dish combines the crisp textures of daikon radish and carrot with a delicate dressing of vinegar and sugar, creating a harmonious blend of sweet and tangy flavors. Ideal for cleansing the palate, Namasu is often served during New Year celebrations but has gained popularity as a year-round side dish. Its vibrant colors and refreshing taste make it a delightful addition to any meal, providing a light, healthy option that appeals to vegan and non-vegan diners alike. By omitting any animal products, this version ensures that everyone can enjoy the traditional tastes of Japan regardless of dietary restrictions.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups thinly sliced daikon radish
  • 1 cup thinly sliced carrot
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
