These surprised me when I thought of pickled radish I assumed alot of salt like the ume...but these are a sweet pickle, spiced well, not my style but on occasion I can see eating these when its cold out, it reminded me slightly of sweet potatoe.

I was delighted when I found these being sold through Asian Food Grocer. I live in a very remote area in Indiana and there is shopping here other than walmart, so any asian food must be ordered online. Asian Food Grocer has the best price on these that I could find, and I was well pleased to find them not pre sliced so that I could then cut them into different shapes depending on what I want to use them for in the recipes or as a garnish. They are very nicely crisp with a pleasant mild flavor and have a long shelf life in my refrigerator.
