Three-Ingredient Quick Pickled Watermelon Radish (糖醋红心萝卜)
This pickled watermelon radish is sweet and slightly sour, with a hint of spiciness. It takes only 5 minutes to put together and another 5 minutes to marinate. It works as a fun appetizer by itself and is a great ingredient to add to your salad. {Gluten-Free, Vegan}
The traditional Chinese method always uses rice vinegar and sugar. But if you prefer a natural sweetener, I recommend the combination of apple cider vinegar and maple syrup. It gives the dish a fruity taste and works just as well as the traditional method.
I enjoy processing the radish with a knife. But feel free to use a peeler to shred it, or use a spiralizer to make it into veggie noodles.
