Sunomono is a refreshing and light salad that comes from Chinese cuisine. Its main feature is the harmonious combination of crunchy daikon and cucumber soaked in a fragrant vinegar dressing. The thin slices of vegetables absorb a delicate sweet-sour note, making each forkful enjoyable for the taste buds. This salad is perfect as an appetizer or side dish to meat and fish dishes. Its simplicity in preparation makes it an excellent option for summer days when something fresh and light is desired. Sunomono is valued for its ability to highlight the flavors of the main ingredients without unnecessary additions, preserving their natural freshness. Its cool texture makes it an ideal complement to rich and spicy dishes, adding balance and sophistication.
