Kanboshi daikon (Japanese radish dried in cold weather) dishes

Japanese radish is cut into round slices, then skewered and dried in front of houses at the edge of eaves. The water content in the radish freezes during the night and is melted and drained during the daytime. Repeating this process for many days, the natural taste and sweetness of the radish are richly condensed. "Kanboshi Daikon of Okuhida Yamanomura" was certified as a "Real Original Product of Locality (Homba no Honmono)" in 2013 by the Japan Food Industry Association and introduced at the Milano Expo in 2015. In 2017, it was registered under Geographical Indication (GI) Law.
