Bettarazuke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bettarazuke (べったら漬?) is a kind of pickled daikon popular in Tokyo. It is made by pickling daikon with sugar, salt, and sake without filtering koji. Its name is taken from the stickiness of koji leftover from the pickling process. Bettarazuke has a crisp sweet taste.
On the night of every October 19th in the area around Takarada shrine, Bettara Ichi, lit. bettara fair is held to sell the year's freshly pickled bettarazuke.
