2. Cut the radish into half-inch-long sections, then cut into thick slices with a knife, then cut into thumb-thick strips and place in a slightly larger basin.
3. Add appropriate amount of salt and white vinegar, stir evenly and marinate for two to three hours. Shake once or twice in the middle to marinate evenly and remove all excess water.
4. After three hours, drain the radish.
5. After the brine is drained, pour the radish back into the large basin, add an appropriate amount of chopped chili pepper, and sprinkle with a small spoonful of white sugar.
6. Stir thoroughly and the delicious and refreshing sour and spicy radish will be ready.
cooking tips
Don't add too much salt. It's basically just for snacks. If it's too salty, it won't taste good. You can add or subtract the chopped pepper according to your preference. The same goes for the sugar. If you like it sweet, add more. If you don't like it, just sprinkle a little to enhance the taste.
If you are not in a hurry to eat it, you can lengthen the marinating step with salt and vinegar. The radish will be more flavorful and less spicy.
