Default Chinese Radish

great idea for a thread:

Chinese radish also called lo bok or daikon radish. It looks like a gigantic white carrot.

Raw:
- dice it into a salad
- slice it into circles and use as "crackers"
- cut it into strips and use to dip into home made creamy dressings

Cooked:
- dice and put into a soup instead of rice, potatoes or noodles
- boil and drain it, slather with butter
- boil and mash it (it's a bit watery)
- chunk it and bake it in the oven with a roast like roast potatoes
- julienne it and use it in a stir fry

It has become our subsitute for potatoes.
