WHAT'S SPECIAL
Spring in cold places can look a little slushy – just like this simmered chicken dish. Except that this is much more delicious!

Winter is just starting to melt away, and if you live in a place where snow is an inevitable part of the season, you also know about the slushy sleet that usually accompanies its slow transition into spring. Well, Japanese cuisine has a meal for that!

Sleet in Japanese is mizore, and bears a striking resemblance to grated daikon. Ni means simmered – so this is a recipe for chicken simmered in daikon sleet! It’s similar to our simmered cod with grated daikon recipe. The same great taste and texture of daikon sleet, with yummy juicy chicken!
