Using my family's favorite ratio for amazu (sweet vinegar) dishes, I made this red and white salad for New Year's.

The key to making it delicious is to firmly squeeze out the water after the daikon and carrot have wilted.

Steps

1

Cut the daikon radish and carrot into thin slices. Use a mandoline to slice as thinly as possible.
2

The ratio of daikon radish to carrot should be around 5:1. If you add too much carrot, the color won't be balanced, so adjust the amounts.
3

Salt both the daikon radish and the carrot and lightly massage in the salt. Leave them sit for a while. When they have wilted, squeeze tightly to squeeze out the water.
4

Mix the seasonings (vinegar, sugar, salt, water). Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
5

Add the daikon radish and carrot to the mixed seasonings and mix well. Put into an airtight container and refrigerate.
6

After about 10 minutes, the flavors will be blended and it will be delicious. Adjust the marinating time as you like.

I served the salad in a hollowed out yuzu citrus and garnished with a little yuzu peel (cut in the shape of pine needles). The salad is also delicious with a squeeze of yuzu juice.
