These small bites are surprisingly tasty and will be well-loved by adults and kids alike. We like to eat ours on their own. Sometimes we eat them with cream cheese and crackers or with smoked salmon.
Ingredients:
1-2 medium to large daikon radishes or 1 bunch of small radishes
1/2 of a large onion
2 tablespoon of salt
6 tablespoons of white vinegar
1 pint water
1. Thinly slice the onions and radish.
2. Pack them tightly into a mason jar.
3. Heat water, salt, and vinegar over med-high heat until mixture begins to simmer. Stir to ensure the salt has thoroughly dissolved into the brine.
4. Pour hot liquid over radishes and onions. Should yield 1-2 pints of radishes depending on the type of radish used.
5. Cover and refrigerate. These keep for 2-3 weeks.

I see they keep 2 -3 weeks, but how soon until they are sufficiently pickle-y?
