Carrot Daikon Slaw Recipes

Steps:

• Shave the daikon into ribbons with a vegetable peeler. Toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt in a colander; let drain in the sink, tossing occasionally, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, shave the carrots into ribbons with the peeler.
• Make the dressing: Whisk the ginger, vinegar, lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the vegetable oil and sesame oil until blended.
• Toast the sesame seeds in a skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until the white seeds are golden, about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon seeds to the dressing.
• Toss the daikon and carrots with the dressing and season with salt. Top with the remaining sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, red pepper flakes and some salt and pepper until smooth. Whisk in the olive oil until completely blended. Toss the shredded carrots with the dressing in a large bowl. Taste and season with more salt or pepper as needed. Add the parsley and toss. Chill 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Grate carrot, cucumber and daikon together into a medium bowl. Stir in horseradish and a pinch of salt. Add a spoonful of mayo and two heaping spoonfuls of sour cream. Mix well, adding additional mayo or sour cream as needed to pull the salad together. Taste, adjust horseradish and salt as needed.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine daikon, carrots and jalapenos. In a saucepan, bring water, vinegar, sugar, salt and, if desired, liquid smoke to a boil. Simmer until sugar dissolves. Pour mixture over vegetables, ensuring vegetables are submerged; cool. Transfer to jars, if desired; cover tightly. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour before serving. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• To make the pickled vegetables: In a bowl, toss together the carrots, cucumbers, daikon, vinegar, sugar and salt and let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the pork. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon scallions and 1 to 2 tablespoons chili sauce, to taste. Cover tightly and set aside.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons scallions and the garlic. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add pork and cook, breaking up with a fork, until no longer pink, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon chili sauce and the fish sauce, pepper, salt and sugar. Remove from heat and stir in the basil, lime zest and lime juice. Let cool 5 minutes, then add mayonnaise mixture.
• Fill bread with pork mixture. Press the jalapeño, mint and cilantro sprigs into the pork. Spoon some pickled vegetables onto the sandwiches and serve any extra alongside.

Steps:

• Fit processor with large-hole grating disk. Working with a few pieces at a time, push daikon, carrots, and broccoli stems through feed tube until all vegetables are grated.
