From the Test Kitchen

Daikon, which means “large root” in Japanese, is a long, white radish cultivated in East Asia. It has a milder flavor compared to other radishes, and is often pickled and served as a side dish. Daikon radishes are high in Vitamin C, and some people use them to help naturally fight infection.
