It looks like you're on Protein Power so you can use ground crispbread instead.

James, daikon is white radish that looks more like a parsnip on steroids than a radish. You can usually find daikon in Asian groceries, if your loacl market doesn't carry it. They can be really large--12-18" long, and 3" in diameter, and they're usually the same diameter all the way from tip to top.

An excellent reference for fruits and vegetables of all kinds is "Dr. Richter's Fresh Produce Guide," (c) 2000 by Try-Foods International. If you can't get it locally, you can order it directly at 800-421-8871. I actually bought my copy in the produce section of a local supermarket. It contains nutrient information, recipes and pictures of over 300 varieties of fruits and veggies. Hope this helps.

in the Kitchen Help Forum. There is info and pictures of daikon radish and other stuff that you may find interesting. :)

while books are great - sometimes there are no pictures, and you want a picture in mind when you go to the Asian or Indian market.
one thing that works good is to go to www.google.com and instead of the default "web" search, click the tab for "image" - and then type your ingredient in the search box - you'll get pages of links to images of your item.

We tried these tonight, they were very good and pretty easy to make. We topped them with a bit of sour cream. Thanks for the recipe :)
