New! Japanese Daikon & Lentil Curry (Vegan)


Hi there Reader --

It’s getting warmer lately, which means daikon season is coming to an end. I’ve made so many daikon recipes, but I’m still finding new ways to enjoy it—like this simple, homemade daikon curry! No store-bought roux, just a quick simmer for a light, flavorful dish.
