Radishes have been an auspicious dish since ancient times. In the old days, big radishes symbolized good weather, good luck and peace, and the big and beautiful ones should be sent to the imperial dining room. In some places, radish is called "caitou" in the dialect, in order to have a homophonic "color head", and wish for a good luck. In our place, the homophony of the native dialect is a stack of steps. The meaning of eating radish during the New Year means stacking more and more, one step at a time, haha.
At that time, my mother often taught us to eat more radishes. She always said that radishes compete with ginseng and eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer, and the doctor prescribes prescriptions without any effort. I think there are three reasons why radishes are popular with the public. The first is the grass roots, and the second is health. The three are good characters. You can eat them raw, cooked, meat, or vegetarian. Everything is good.
There is a soup dish that must be served on our New Year's dinner table, which is the [spring radish scallop soup], but I made it a little more innovative, and cut it into a heart shape with a mold, which is more beautiful than the block cut by my mother. Coupled with the green vegetable juice, it also brings out the white jade-like radish and fresh scallops, which is crystal clear and beautiful.
This dish, white radish and fresh shellfish complement each other. It tastes light, delicious and refreshing. It can sober up and help digestion in the banquet. If you can't buy fresh scallops, you can use soaked scallops. Friends may wish to try to show off at the New Year's dinner table.
