Ingredients
- 2 medium turnips
- 1/2 cup yuzu juice
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Wash the turnips thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris.
- Peel the turnips completely using a sharp vegetable peeler, ensuring all skin is removed for a smooth texture.
- Cut the turnips into uniform thin slices, approximately 1/8 inch thick, using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer for consistent cuts.

- Place the sliced turnips into a clean, sterilized glass jar or airtight container.
- Pour the prepared pickling liquid over the turnip slices, ensuring they are completely submerged.
- Seal the container tightly and refrigerate for 24 hours to allow the flavors to fully develop and penetrate the turnips.

- Store any remaining pickled turnips in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, keeping them submerged in the pickling liquid.
