Daikon Salad {Surówka z rzodkwi}

Daikon in Polish is called biała rzodkiew [bya-wa rzoh-dkyev] = white radish. It has a sharp flavor of a radish, and snowy while flesh. In the daikon salad, when it’s combined with yoghurt, heavy cream, spices and lemon juice it tastes creamy and refreshing. I often see it being served as a part of a salad-trio in Polish restaurants. The other two are often sauerkraut salad and carrot salad or beet salad. I like it served with meat dishes, like stewed pork ribs or beef rolls or fried fish.

Daikon Salad {Sałatka z Rzodkwi}

Ingredients

1 daikon
¼ c / 60 ml of plain yogurt

Instructions

Wash and peel daikon. Grate on the largest side of a box grater.
Place in a bowl, add yogurt, heavy cream, lemon, sugar and salt. Mix, and taste. If too dry, add another tablespoon of cream and yogurt. It should be pretty moist, but not soupy.

I hope you give this crunchy, refreshing salad a try. Let me know what you think if you do.
