Nice! Thank you man. Looks like they come in bags?

They are abundant at Hmart in various packaging such as tube shaped so you would slice it at home, presliced in a bag, etc. Here’s a maangchi recipe if you want to make it at home!

Shitttt you responded too fast before I could edit. Go to mitsuwa in edgewater they have a whole pickle section called tsukemono, all sorts of this stuff. But yeah I think you can get them in jars or plastic.

Oh like Mitsuwa has it fresher?

I don't think freshness matters too much for pickles...

Wanna say 90% yes. But I haven’t been there for a minute. Used to work at a Japanese bank and would grab stuff for the expats in Manhattan that didn’t have cars.

Must be used in both cuisines, this is a Japanese place… but thank you I will check it out this weekend

i always thought it was just borrowed by japanese-american restaurants because it all gets mixed up here, but i did just google and apparently it's called takuan in japanese and is indeed one of the traditional pickle dishes

99 has them exactly in this package. I was there over the weekend. It’s the last aisle on the right side of the store. Same aisle as the eggs but opposite side. There’s even smaller bags of daikon strips which I normally get cause those huge logs is too much daikon for me. Go to h-mart some time and pick up some kimbap. It’s got pickled daikon in it too and it’s delicious

So much good intel. Thanks!

Not 100% sure but very likely you can find them in 99 Ranch, in the aisle next to the food court. An open fridge has all pickled vegetables, I believe this is some kind of radish. You won't find them in jars, maybe in vacuumed plastic bags?
If 99 Ranch does not have it, H Mart will definitely have it.

I knew what you were referring to before I even saw the image... daikon is DELICIOUS. I used to go to a late night sushi joint on St Mark's Place that had a veggie roll with chunks of this in it. It was SOOOO good. That's how I first discovered daikon. Now, I get excited anytime I spot it in a dish, which is not often enough. I haven't had the katsu don at Honshu in forever, but I don't recall it ever having daikon, so I will have to go check it out. Thanks for the tip!

Yea it’s good stuff
Wildwilly54 t1_j6vbn2z wrote
It’s called “Takuan”. It’s pickled daikon
Edit; Go to mitsuwa in edgewater and look for the Tsukemono area, all sorts of crazy pickeled shit
