Carrot & Daikon Pickles

Hello people...

Here goes my homemade carrot & daikon pickles.The recipe is from here.

You can also try another recipe.I believe there are few types of recipe out there.

raw carrot & daikon

cut it into slice

mix them together and put into glass jar

They are ready to eat after 1 hour stored into the fridge.The longer we stored,the better it taste.

2nd Harvest Daikon

Yeah,on the 2nd harvest we manage to get 4 cute daikons.Alhamdullilah.So,one of it already in the chicken soup.I am thinking of making daikon pickles for the 3 left.If you guys have the recipe for daikon pickles,do share with me ya :)

1st Harvest Daikon

Masih belum terlambatkan nak ucapkan Selamat Hari Raya buat muslimin & muslimat sekalian?

Anyway,entry kali ni berkaitan dengan tuaian pertama daikon kami.In the previous post,as you all know,i am not sure when to harvest this daikon.Tapi bila memikirkan tentang nak balik beraya dan tiada orang yang menyiram pokok-pokok,makanya lebih baiklah harvest sedikit dulu,untuk menu berbuka puasa kali-kali terakhir ni.Daripada tak dapat merasa langsung nanti,kempunan la pulak.

Masa harvest ni,Ezzy pilih hanya yang 2 paling besar sahaja.Nak tuai banyak-banyak,sapa nak makan kan?Dan hasilnya adalah seperti gambar bawah ni haa.Itu pon sudah banyak untuk kami berdua ni.Sebenarnya.Ezzy sendiri tak pernah makan daikon ni,tapi cuba tanam sebab ada baca dalam internet,daikon adalah tumbuhan yang cepat membesar dan perlukan penjagaan yang banyak/leceh.

2 tiny daikons. Enuff for 2 people.

So,Ezzy ada jugak la google-google kot-kot dapat resepi yang bestkan.Most of the recipes,dalam bentuk soup.So,I give a try.Tapi part yang paling tak best sekali,masa mengupas kulit daikon ni haaa,mak aih bau dia busuknya.Sampai rasa pening kepala.Aishh,biar betul.Rasa risau pulak nak masak,kang nanti dalam sup pon bau busuk lagi.Lepas tu,ada kawan di Facebook bagi tips rebus dengan sup tulang ayam dan tumbuk lada putih.

Alhamdullilah,bila dah jadi sup,bau busuk tu pon dah hilang.Jangan tak tahu yer,daun daikon ni sebenarnya boleh makan jugak,masukkan sekali dalam sup tu,macam sawi.Lepas ni boleh try resepi masak lemak putih daikon & jeruk daikon seperti yang direcommend oleh kawan-kawan di Facebook.

Daikon Soup

Daikon : Lobak Putih

Daikon,white radish or lobak putih.They are same thing come with few types of name.I did not record the date when i sow the daikon seed.But now i think it is almost 2 months.From my reading and research,daikon is a fast grow vegetable where it takes around 2 months to be harvested.

Now i can see that some of my daikon already growing where it shows its root getting bigger.

Looking at the size of the daikon,i can call it as baby daikon.It is still small for me.

I will wait for another 2 weeks to see progress of its growing.
