2 tb Vinegar
1 ts Sugar
1/2 ts Salt

Smashed Radishes Preparation
1. Wash and trim radishes. Lay each on its side, then crush by pounding decisively once or twice with the side of a cleaver or the bottom of a glass. (The radishes should split open, but not break in two.) 2. Sprinkle with salt and let stand 5 to 10 minutes; then drain. Transfer to a bowl. 3. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and remaining salt. Add to radishes and toss gently. Refrigerate, covered, only to chill (about 20 minutes). Sprinkle with peanut oil just before serving. NOTE: Instead of crushing the radishes, you may make a crisscross cut in the top of each, to let the seasonings penetrate. VARIATIONS : For the peanut oil, substitute a few drops of sesame oil. For the white vinegar, substitute cider vinegar. For the white sugar, substitute light brown sugar. At the end of step 1, add 1 small cucumber, unpeeled, cut lengthwise in thirds, then crosswise in 1-inch sections, and crushed gently, like the radishes. At the end of step 2, add 1 green pepper, slivered. In step 3, add 1 garlic clove, minced, to the dressing. From <The Thousand Recipe Chinese Cookbook>, ISBN 0-517-65870-4.
