Production method:
Dried radish is usually made in winter solstice, and it goes through three processes: drying, pickling and storage. Pull out the radish, wash it, expose it to the sun, enclose it, fill it with a layer of radish and a layer of salt, then cover it, press on a big stone and take it back at night. After a week, take it out to dry, rub off the water, and then expose it to the sun until the water can't squeeze out. Then the salt water in the bamboo mulch film is filtered and boiled, then the dried radish is poured into it for soaking, rubbed once while it is hot, squeezed out with salt water and dried in the sun. When it turns golden yellow, put the dried radish into a clean urn for compaction, seal it with yellow mud, and take it out after half a year. In this way, it became dried radish with unique flavor.
