Equipment

Ingredients

  • 6 Cups Daikon Cubed
  • 1/2 Cup Blueberry liquid
  • 1/2 Cup Beetroot liquid
  • 1.5 Cup Water
  • 1.5 Cup Vinegar White
  • 1 Cup Sweetener
  • 1/2 tablespoon Salt
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Prepare all the ingredients needed. Start by peeling the daikon radishes and slicing them into small cubes. I suggest using any sugar-free sweeteners, we need one that dissolves quickly. Prepare distilled vinegar for brighter daikon colors. Place the beetroot juice and blueberry liquid in small containers and prepare enough amount for the color you want to achieve.
  • In a container, combine the same amount of water and vinegar for the brine and add the sugar and salt. Mix it with a whisk or spoon until the salt and sweeteners dissolve and the water turns clear again. Once the brine is prepared, divide it into separate bowls and add the beetroot and blueberry liquids to the two bowls, leaving the other white. After preparing the pickling liquid, place the sliced daikon into jars and pour the different colored brine over the radishes, ensuring they are fully covered.
  • Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate them for at least 24 hours. The longer they sit, the more flavorful they will become.

Notes

  • I suggest only using natural coloring sources to dye the daikon, such as blueberry liquid for blue, beetroot liquid for pink, and turmeric shots for yellow.
  • Adjust the brine's flavor to suit your preference. If the vinegar is too strong, you can add more sweetener or water.
  • Slice the daikon evenly to ensure consistent pickling and a uniform crunch on each cube.
