Grated Radish with Ponzu and Sesame
This simple side dish is based on a traditional Japanese way to eat daikon radish. In this recipe, I use Local Roots watermelon radish, which gives the dish a bright and beautiful pink color. The dish is light, but has complex flavors and can be a wonderful addition to a meal of rice and miso soup.
Serves 1-2
Ingredients
2 Tbsp. ponzu sauce, store bought or freshly made
1 tsp. toasted sesame seed
Directions
- Wash and peel the radish.
- Grate the radish with a microplane or fine grater.
- Grind the sesame with a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Place the radish into a bowl and top with ponzu sauce.
- Garnish with sesame.
- Enjoy!
