Mu Saengchae (Spicy Radish Salad)

How to make Korean spicy radish salad:
Musaengchae is an easy side dish to put together. The most difficult part for some of you will be julienning the radish. You can use a mandolin if you like. For this type of musaengchae, I like to salt the radish first to draw out some water for extra crunch.

In this recipe, I used 1 tablespoon of fish sauce (myulchi aekjeot), but sometimes I also use salted shrimp (saeujeot). You can of course omit the fish sauce and use the same amount of soup soy sauce (gukganjang) or simply a little more salt to season to make it a vegan dish.You can also use some vinegar to taste if you want to add a bit of sour taste.
