About this recipe
Method
30 min prep
Slice the daikon radish into thin rounds or strips, depending on your preference.
In a mixing bowl, combine apple cider vinegar, rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and turmeric. Stir until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved.
Place the daikon slices in a clean, sterile jar. Pour the vinegar mixture over the daikon, ensuring the slices are completely submerged. If necessary, add water to cover.
Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 48 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Shake the jar occasionally to distribute the pickling solution.
Serve chilled as an appetizer, side dish, or a condiment. The pickled daikon can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a month.
