Notes
- Substitute: You can omit canned tuna to make it a vegetarian salad. Instead of cucumber and moyashi, you can use other vegetables such as carrots, lettuce, celery, and onion. Instead of vinegar, you can substitute it with lemon juice.
- You can find the kiriboshi daikon package at a Japanese grocery store or online store.
- The kiriboshi daikon will increase volume about four times when rehydrated with water. Start with half the size if you are eating kiriboshi daikon for the first time.
- If you’re not a fan of the smell of dried daikon radish, wash it thoroughly by squeezing it before rehydrating.
