In their vegetable bins I thought I found Korean radish. The lady at the counter said it was, so I bought two. (Though the lady was Chinese and not up on anything that wasn't.)</p> <p>They didn't look anything like the pictures in Maangchi's ingredients, most of them were skinnier and all of them were a bit rubbery on the outsides. But they were clearly not daikon and definitely radishes. Since cutting them up, the outsides were very stringy and bark-like, and didn't fully come off with just peeling. I had to cut a great deal of the outside off. </p> <p>How does one know if they have a real Korean radish, and do all real ones look like Maangchi's photo? I think I got a pair of duds. </p>
