CHINESE QUICK PICKLED RADISH SALAD WITH GARLIC
A fabulous way of adding a bit of colour along with a crisp texture in Chinese cooking; this can be made just before you are ready to serve an Oriental meal, and is one of the nicest ways I know of dressing up the humble radish! You can use red radishes, Chinese white radish - Mooli or even black radishes for this quick pickle. Serve it as an accompaniment for most Chinese or Asian meals. Make sure that whatever type of radishes you use, are fresh, firm and crisp. I prefer the red radishes for colour, but any of the radishes I have suggested work well in this simple pickle. The quantities listed below, will serve about 4 people as a generous condiment.

Steps:
- Put garlic into sterile, half-pint jar. Stir together vinegar, sugar and salt; pour liquid over garlic. Cover jar tightly with a nonreactive cap. Store in refrigerator at least one month before using garlic. It will keep well for one year in the refrigerator. This recipe yields 1 cup. Cook's note: I used commercially peeled garlic in this recipe. After a week, I noticed that some of the cloves had turned a blue-green color. Ziedrich said that the discoloration is harmless, and added that the cloves that discolored were probably either immature or old.
