The Japanese love their daikon; it’s the most widely grown vegetable in the country. And among the more than 100 varieties of the flavorful white radish, the mild, crisp-tender, very hardy and very large, carrot-shaped aokubi, with its pale green neck, is the most popular. Incredibly versatile, the aokubi daikon can be grated over a salad or be the salad; they can be pickled; and cooked, as part of a stir-fry, a soup, or a braise.

Here's what you get:

  • 1 lb of aokubi green neck daikon

Big Root, Big Flavor

Daikon means “big root,” and Food Connect’s white radishes with the green necks live up to their name. These big-boy aokubis can grow to be the size of a bowling pin. And their flavor, while mild, is still assertive and fresh. Chinese cook Irene Kuo shreds daikon and marinates it with celery cabbage, coriander leaves, and sesame oil. Asian-food expert Bruce Cost stir-frys his daikon with soy sauce, ginger, onions, sherry, and orange peel. But anytime you want big radish flavor, the aokubi is the one to count on.
