Korean Spicy Radish Salad
1lb mu (Korean radish)/daikon, peeled & cut into matchsticks
1 tsp salt
1-2 scallions, finely chopped
2 tbsp gochugaru
2 tsp garlic, minced
½ tsp ginger, grated
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
Sprinkle the salt over the radish and toss well to coat evenly. Let sit for about 20 minutes until the radish has softened and released some liquid. Drain excess liquid. Do not rinse.
Add all the remaining ingredients, except the scallion and sesame seeds. Mix well by hand. Taste and add more salt or fish sauce, if necessary.
Throw in the scallion and sesame seeds and toss everything well.
