Stewed Daikon Radish and Chicken Drumettes

I used to make meatless stewed daikon radish with carrots, but I got inspired seeing it made with chicken thighs on a cooking show on TV; I thought it would be possible to create an even tastier dish with chicken drumettes, since the bones would produce a nice stock.

You can finish after Step 4, but if you prefer a stronger taste, go on to Step 5.
If the daikon radish are stewed too quickly, they will break apart in the pot, so keep the heat on low. In Step 5, it might be good to remove the daikon from the stew and simmer the soup separately. Recipe by Kawakamisan
