Moo Saeng Chae (Marinated Radish Salad) image

I don't know how closely this recipe follows the traditional Korean recipe; I make do with what produce is available here. For this recipe I used both daikon radish and icicle radish. I'm sure other varieties will work. Use fresh, crisp farm fresh radishes. Limpy grocery chain radishes won't work. Spicy!

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large crisp apple
2 cups white radishes
3 green onions
3 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons regular sesame oil
1 tablespoon salad oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 lemon, juice of
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
3 tablespoons mild rice vinegar
1/2 red jalapeno chile, seeded and finely chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare marinade and set aside. Note: I cut down the amount of soy sauce from 3 T. to 1 T.- add more if you wish.
  • Peel radishes and cut into matchstick strips.
  • Peel, core and seed apple; cut into matchstick strips. Soak in cold water with a good squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  • Slice the spring onions crosswise into thirds then lengthwise cut into thin strips, including both white and green parts.
  • Combine the salad dressing with the radish, well-drained apple strips and green onion.
  • Cover and chill before serving. Best made 1-2 hours in advance to allow to marinate.
