What kind of radish is delicious?

Radish is one of the most used food ingredients in Korea.
Radish, one of the four major vegetables in Korea, can be used to make a variety of foods, from kimchi to stews and vegetables.

It’s really delicious if you put Julienne Korean Radish Salad on top of rice, add red pepper paste and sesame oil, and mix it together.

Slice the radish with a Radish grater.
If you cut the radish with a Radish grater, it will be cut long and thin.

Add salt to the water and stir well.
Once the salt is well dissolved, soak the finely chopped radish in water.

Soak it for about 15 minutes.

Put the cut radish in a bowl and mix with red pepper powder, minced ginger, minced garlic, vinegar, and sugar.

Check the color of the radish while mixing.
When the red color becomes lighter, add more fine red pepper powder and mix.

Finely chop the green onions, then add the green onions and mix well.

If you sprinkle sesame seeds as a finishing touch, it becomes an appetizing Spicy Radish Salad.
If the radish is very sweet, you should use less sugar.

In the Jeollabuk-do region of Korea, they use New Sugar instead of regular sugar to increase the sweetness.
New Sugar can be 30 times sweeter than regular sugar.

It is not an artificial sweetener but is made from natural sugars.
Both the U.S. FDA and the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety have determined that it is not harmful to the human body.

For people with diabetes, it is better to use New Sugar.
It has a slow digestion and absorption rate and helps moderate blood sugar levels, making it a recommended sweetener for people with diabetes.
The price is also $0.5 per 60g bag.
