Instructions
Peel daikon radish and carrots.
Slice daikon and carrots thin and then cut these into "matchsticks."
Salting the Sliced Vegetables
Add sliced matchstick veggies into a bowl.
Take 1 tbsp of kosher salt and salt the vegetables.
Allow these to dry brine for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, dump the purged water from the bowl and then rinse the vegetables.
Then put 2 cups of each into your mason jar. Filling it up as much as possible.
I prefer a 50/50 mixture of daikon to carrot.
2 cup daikon radish,
2 cup carrots
Making Brine Liquid
In a medium pot combine the listed ingredients - ensuring the sugar and salt are well combined.
1/4 cup rice vinegar,
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar,
4 tbsp white sugar,
1.5 tbsp kosher salt,
1/2 cup water
Bring this mixture to slight boil and then take off the heat.
Ladle or pour the brine liquid into the mason jar, filling up to the top.
Allow to cool and then cover with your lid.
Store in your refrigerator. Flavors will improve overnight.
