Step 1

Lightly smack the radishes with the side of a cleaver or a rolling pin. (The idea is to crack them open, not to smash them to smithereens.)

Step 2

Pile the cracked radishes in a bowl, add the salt, and toss well. Set aside for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Combine the sugar and soy sauce in a small bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the chile and sesame oils.

Step 4

When you’re ready to eat, drain the radishes—they will have released a fair amount of water—and shake them dry. Pour the chile oil mixture over the radishes and toss to mix well. That’s it. Really. You can go ahead and serve them now. Originally published February 19, 2013.
