I don’t recall seeing cauliflower for sale in the Kashgar Sunday Market, but I want to do something different than the same old pickled cucumbers.

Karl’s Spicy Daikon Radish Pickle
This dish has its origin in our time in Chengu, China. We lived in the Foreigner’s Hotel. This was known as “the Panda House” and, yes, with its fenced in garden, it did look just like the Panda House at the local zoo. Many mornings we would walk down stairs to eat at the hotel restaurant rather than cook in our apartment. This was partly because the gas was so iffy – the local children thought it was a great joke to shut off the gas valve to the foreigner’s apartments.

I had already made cucumber pickles, but how about daikon pickles? I switched the radish for the cucumbers in my Quick Pickled Japanese Cucumbers. Since the radish is a bit firmer than the cucumbers, I gave it an hour in the salt before rinsing it off.

I did not want to make the same pickles I did last time so I changes the seaweed I was using and added some bonito shavings to these pickles.

Karl’s Quick Pickled Japanese Cucumbers
I forgot to start the pickles I was planning to make the day before, so I wanted to come up with a faster way to make Japanese cucumber pickles. I decided to use the technique of Persian hot pickles, heating the pickling liquid and the cucumbers to speed up the process. They came out very much like my favorite cucumber pickles from Gombei.
