What is kaiware?

Kaiware is another name for Daikon sprouts, which are popular in Japanese cuisine. These sprouts are grown from the seeds of the daikon radish plant and are typically consumed raw as a garnish or added to salads, sandwiches, and other dishes for a fresh and crunchy texture. They are low in calories and high in vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, iron, and potassium. In addition to their nutritional value, kaiware also have a subtle peppery flavor that adds a pleasant zing to dishes. They are easy to grow at home indoors or outdoors and can be harvested in as little as seven days.
