Turnips are in season: in spring, from March to May; and in autumn, from October to November. I like juicy spring turnips the best. I normally use smoked salmon or canned tuna, but I used imitation crab sticks to make this dish even cheaper as the consumption tax rate has been raised recently. I won't be defeated by tax increase!

Don't add too much salt to season the salad at the end. I normally grind roasted sesame seeds halfway through and sprinkle over the salad, but you can use store-bought ground sesame seeds as well. Recipe by COCOnchino daidokoro
