Oshinko Pickled Sweet Yellow Radish, half-cut 350 g - LV Zheng

These glossy yellow daikon radishes—known as takuan in Japan and danmuji in Korea—offer a sweet-and-tart crunch. Commonly served alongside sushi, in kimbap, or as a palate cleanser between spicy bites. The slices contain the enzyme myrosinase, which aids digestion and supports detoxification.

Fun Fact

While the bright color is often achieved with food dye, traditional Korean versions used turmeric or gardenia fruit to create a natural yellow hue. These pickles are a staple in sushi rolls and kimbap for their texture and digestive benefits.

How to Use This Product

1. Drain and rinse before serving to reduce excess brine.
2. Slice into strips for sushi rolls or enjoy whole as a side.
3. Excellent as a refreshing palate cleanser between spicy or rich courses.
