<Notes>
- Cherry tomatoes also work great.
- Squeezing out excess water should basically reduce the volume of grated daikon by half.
- If shiokoji is not available, use salt and a bit more sugar (shiokoji is both salty and sweet).
- Add some lemon juice when pairing this with deep-fried items for a fresher note.
- "Oroshi" is a shortened form of "daikon oroshi [grated daikon radish]."
