annual pickled RAKKYO has come


Right now, I received a parcel, it is a bin of pickled Rakkyo that my friend made.
To tell the truth, I don't like pickled Rakkyo, but I "love" hers. I can eat only hers. Rakkyo is Japanese shallot, but they seem not to be in the same group.
Thanks Micchan.

Do you eat picked rakkyo by itself or do you slice it up and mix with cooked greens or other vegetables? It is pickled with vinegar and tastes like other pickled things, such a cucumbers?

You can slice itup, and mix with somethings, and of course we can eat a rakkyo by it self.
Pickled cucumbers you mention is the green things that is put in humbargers, isn't it?
Though both of them are pickled with vinegar, I think taste is a little bit different. Because -- sorry, I don't lime pickled vinegar cucumbers very much.
