The pickles are ready!

The daikon pickles that were buried in the rice bran and takuan yellow powder are now ready to eat! Getting them out of the vat is a disgusting process of sopping up the fermenting liquid but the results are tasty. We only take out as many as we are going to use immediately. Cut up only one at a time and use them as soon as possible after cutting. We store the pickles in the refrigerator after taking them out of the vat.
