Good job 👍, Anthony. My family been growing Daikon for the 1,000 years. It’s a cash crop for Asian markets. We grow the Japanese variety. See Asian cooking 🧑🍳. I make a type of dried Veggie noodle, a yellow pickle, a type of rice topping, Kim Chee, and others.
I liked them boiled like potatoes because I can't eat potatoes but I can eat radish but I don't like the sharp taste boiling them makes them taste really yummy
Will try next year. Tried "mini daikon", this year, one star, tough, fibrous, tasted like dirt. Hopefully, crunchy, refreshing, yummy, suitable for salads, pickles, and stir fry next year. 👍 good video and recommendation.
Never tried growing the minis. Didn't even know they existed. But these guys are pretty good. Depending on your weather while they grow really impacts the perceived spiciness. When I grew these in the spring. They were much more refreshing. Fall since my temps kept hitting high 80s. They were more spicy. But they take pickling very well. And you can cook them to taste more like a carrot
I planted a Japanese variety last year and was eating my own radishes into December of last year. I like the root uncooked and cook the leaves in oil, garlic, and onions. Simply delicious.
I see Kimchi in your future. Have you eaten the pods or leaves? the leaves are a bit radishy, so I only put in a few leaves in a bunch of greens. The young pods are awesome..and it's one of the easiest plants to save seed from...they keep reseeding themselves in the pot I grow them in for my little seed farm.
Mmmm kimchi is amazing. I have eaten the leaves. Not bad at all when you cook them in bacon fat with onions. Haven't let them go to seed yet. Last fall I let them decompose in place. That's where I planted the pumpkins. In the spring, once I discovered how good they were pickled, I didn't let any go to seed. Granted I only planted like 10 so it was easy to go through them. This spring coming up I'll let them go to seed for sure. I'm just mad I waited so long to try growing them. Hence the video. To convince others to not wait so long like I did
Thank you so much for this info. After you grate it, stirfry in a pan with salt, pepper and lots of lemon squeezed on it. After it is cooked for atleasr 20 minutes to half hour and is much softer. It tastes great in a wrap or pasta and amazing on a pizza! Try it. ❤
Like #23. Good information! Same as you, they break up the heavy clay soil that I have. I haven’t actually eaten them… I let them grow deep and then rot.
I have the proof too. These guys can be a game changer for the person that needs a non chemical solution for fertility and a non mechanical solution for tilling
Depends on how you cook them. Raw they taste like a half turnip, half radish. Cooked they taste more like a turnip to me. Pickled they taste like a cool crisp radish
He’s wrong about the daikon radish dying off in the wintertime. It’s one of the few foods that you can grow that you can eat in the winter time. Also, you will have it in spring time and it makes a wonderful pollinator for all the bees when it shows you is beautiful, beautiful flowering when it metamorphic sizes itself and starts producing seeds that’s like a cocoon. You should see when it turns into a butterfly it’s blue. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

They are very good. I'm a fan of it in kimchi. But the more I use it, the more I realize I can sneak it into alot of stews and no one notices

My chickens love the greens
Mine too!
Thankyou for this video . I will go check it out for next year’s planting. Great information. Have a wonderful day.
I can imagine your garden is looking like mine right about now...
@@PalmettoPrepared Yes, its all sad and wilted. I am going to miss it! I do have my grow lights though! Have a great evening.

That sounds very simple yet interesting. I'll give it a go this fall!! Thank you!
Excellent video!❤
When daikons flower and go to seed, the pods are abundant!!!! They are yummy and if you let them dry on the plant...More seeds!
It's incredible how many seeds one plant can give you
Like #23. Good information! Same as you, they break up the heavy clay soil that I have. I haven’t actually eaten them… I let them grow deep and then rot.
You should try pickling them. They're surprisingly good
Thank you. You sir, are a gem. I've harvested mine today.
Thank you! And excellent, hope you enjoy them
Thank you Scientist...good to have info Actual instead of opinion

Awesome vid, man. Like your style.
Thank you. I appreciate that
Good informational video Anthony, thanks for sharing, God bless brother !
Thanks Michael
As a whole is more like a turnip or radish in flavor

I plant mine every fall and as soon as the weather hits 22°-24°F, they die. So yes, winter absolutely kills them.
