This is a vegetarian version of a dish that’s traditionally made with beef. Another good use for daikons. Adapt it for the vegetables you have on hand.

From a recipe in Saveur magazine. Pickled greens are a traditional accompaniment to spicy meat dishes in all kinds of Southeast Asian cultures.
So nice to have mustard greens in our box this week. I love these spicy frilly leaves. This recipe makes a Caesar-type salad dressing. Don’t be afraid of the anchovies – they really stand up to the bite of the greens. I’ve adapted this recipe from chow.com.
