Instructions
- Peel and slice the Korean radishes into very thin, 1/8-inch-thick half-moon shapes. In a medium bowl, toss the radishes with the salt and honey and let sit for 1 hour while you make the brine.,Simply Recipes / Cynthia Christensen
- Place the pear, apple, onion, ginger, and garlic in a blender or food processor with 1 cup of cold water. Blend until smooth. Line a wire mesh strainer with a double layer of cheesecloth and set over a large bowl. Pour the blended ingredients into the strainer to catch all the liquid in the bowl. Gather the edges of the cheesecloth and squeeze to get as much liquid from the purée as possible into the bowl. Discard the cheesecloth with the dry purée.,Simply Recipes / Cynthia Christensen,Simply Recipes / Cynthia Christensen
- Drain and rinse the radish slices to remove as much of the salt and honey as possible. Place in the bottom of a 2-quart container with a lid along with the sliced green onions and pepper (if using). Pour all of the strained liquid from the purée along with the remaining 3 cups of cold water on top of the radishes.,Cover and store at room temperature for at least 48 hours, or until you can see bubbles on top of the liquid. Transfer to the refrigerator, where it will keep for a few months. It never really goes bad, but the flavor is best in the first 3 months.,Love the recipe?
