Step 1
Peel the 1 lb daikon radish and cut into thin matchsticks, about 2 inches long. Place in a large bowl.
Step 2
Thinly slice the 3 green onions, separating white and green parts. Add the white parts to the radish; reserve the green parts for garnish.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 tbsp gochujang, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp sugar, and 0.5 tsp salt until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the radish and toss well to coat every piece. Let it sit for 10 minutes to soften slightly and absorb flavor.
Step 5
Just before serving, sprinkle with the reserved green onion slices. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Step 6
For extra crunch, add a handful of toasted sesame seeds or a few slices of cucumber if you have them.
