There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Testing - Daikon Salad

1-The first try was fine. Just fine. It may be that it will be a stellar addition to a summer meal, but as a refreshing side dish. I wonder if I can improve on it to make it a satisfying winter dish/salad? How would I do that?

1 Daikon radish (about 1 to 2lbs)
Salt
Pepper
2 tsps. olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
1 Tbsp cilantro, minced (optional)

  1. Julienne the radish, add a generous sprinkle of sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. 
  2. Add about 2 tsp of extra virgin olive oil, the lime juice and the cilantro (if using). 
  3. Toss and serve.
