A Japanese salad turnip that's mild, sweet, and best eaten raw like a crunchy apple. White, smooth-skinned, and nothing like the woody turnips that put you off as a child. This is the turnip that changes minds.

Japanese-style turnip salad
Slice paper-thin, toss with rice vinegar, a pinch of salt, a scatter of nori flakes, and a drizzle of sesame oil. The crunch and sweetness is remarkable. Turnip as salad hero, not boiled afterthought.
