Daikon Recipes

Fresh ginger is recommended in most Asian dishes but dried is preferred for this one. For better flavour, I recommend buying whole dried pieces and grating it yourself (rather than powedered).

Cook soba noodles according to package directions, rinse, drain and cool. In a large bowl, toss noodles with carrot and daikon. Put lettuce on large serving platter. Top with noodle mixture, peppers, tofu, water chestnuts, mandarin oranges, and lychees. Chill until ready to serve. To make dressing, combine the remaining ingredients; mix well. Serve with salad. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
