Dried Radish (Dried Cucumber) Pickles

Dried Radish (Dried Cucumber) Pickles

Air-dried radish and cucumber strips rehydrated alongside plump peanuts, creating a chewy-crisp pickle whose concentrated, nutty savoriness rewards the patient drying process.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    Cut the radishes into strips and dry them with a dehydrator.

  2. 2
    Step image

    Cucumbers are halved and dried in a dehydrator (the following steps are the same, so only the method for radishes is shown).

  3. 3
    Step image

    Soak the dried radish in water for about two hours.

  4. 4
    Step image

    Soak raw peanuts (you can omit this or use roasted peanuts) in water, peel them, and separate them.

  5. 5
    Step image

    Peanut kernels are soaked in cold boiled water with a little salt and continue to soak in the water.

  6. 6
    Step image

    Once the radish is soaked, drain the peanuts.

  7. 7
    Step image

    Drain and set aside.

  8. 8
    Step image

    After soaking the dried radish, squeeze out the water.

  9. 9

    Prepare the side dishes.

  10. 10
    Step image

    Crush into pieces.

  11. 11
    Step image

    Dried radish, peanut pieces, and chopped vegetables are all placed into the mixing bowl.

  12. 12
    Step image

    Add sweet bean paste, soybean paste, sesame oil, dark soy sauce, scallop sauce, white pepper powder, chili powder, chili oil, and toasted sesame seeds, and mix evenly by hand.

  13. 13
    Step image

    Place it in a container and let it sit in the fridge, occasionally stirring it up and down. The flavor will be about right in about three days. Those who prefer a stronger taste can add salt, but I don't add any because I’m afraid of it being too salty.

    Step image

    Eating this much at each meal is already quite a lot, so you should eat a light diet.

    Eat, eat, eat, just make sure not to eat too much, so salty!!!
