Cultural note

切(き)り干(ぼ)し大根(だいこん) needs to be rehydrated before cooking, typically for 15-20 minutes in water. The soaking water is often used in cooking for added flavor and nutrients.
Drying concentrates the nutrients, making it higher in calcium, iron, and fiber than fresh daikon. A traditional winter staple food.
Commonly simmered (煮物(にもの)) with oil, soy sauce, and dashi. Also used in salads and stir-fries after rehydrating.
