A top-tier side dish with the satisfying crunch of dried radish and tender squid strips, deeply sweetened with jujube syrup and refreshed with generous scallions

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Marinating both dried radish and squid strips with mirin beforehand effectively eliminates their characteristic pungent odor and softens their tough texture.
  • Using jujube syrup instead of regular corn syrup results in a less sharp sweetness that enhances the dish’s glossiness and keeps it fresh longer.
  • Use mostly the white parts of scallions, which offer a crisp, sweet, and savory flavor—this ensures a clean, refreshing aftertaste.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a premium side dish that can be made in advance and enjoyed for days.
  • People who want a tender yet crisp, slightly chewy squid strip side dish without being dry.
