My First Experience with a Daikon

You should be getting a picture of me as someone who is discovering lots of new tastes and textures.  It is exciting and I am discovering tastes that I really like and want to incorporate into my cooking.  Today’s treat is the Daikon radish.  I picked one up at the store, looked at it strangely, and brought it home.  ”Now what?” was my question.

I wish my one individual daikon was as clean looking and graceful as the above.

Roasted Daikon Radish

1 daikon radish

1/4 teaspoon cumin

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

olive oil

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Peel the daikon radish and then slice into several pieces.  They pieces should be about 1/4 inch thick.

Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.  Spray with olive oil.

Place slices of daikon on cookie sheet.  Bale at 450 degrees for 35 minutes.  The daikon  should be browning.  If it is not, leave in longer until it is cooked and brown.

Remove from oven and take a taste.  I think it is delicious.  I would like to use these in salads.
