Product Description
Searching for a cai po with a flavor beyond just saltiness? Try our aged version with a natural umami taste, perfect for adding depth to soups. Plus, our radishes are grown pesticide-free with your health in mind.
Our farmer friend in Miaoli, Taiwan grows white radish using natural farming methods without pesticides. Aged for 1 year, these white radish turns into slivers of black gold. Add a few slices of this to your chicken soup to make it a soup fit to lift your soul.
Plump white radish is washed and cleaned before salted for the pickling process to start. According to the village’s age-old recipe, each piece of salted radish is placed under a rock. The weight of the rock squeezes out moisture of the radish. After a day, the rock is removed, radish is flipped and the rock placed on top of the radish again.
After a few cycles of flipping and sweating under pressure, the radish is then allowed to bask in the sun for a couple of days, before it goes for yet another round of salt spa to complete the pickling process. This manual cycle of activities could take up to a year, and is repeated until the moisture is completely extruded from the radish. The radish is then allowed to age gracefully, before she is packed and sent to the stores.

產品介紹
陳放1年老蘿蔔乾（老菜脯），甘甜有味
在苗栗灣寶以自然栽培的蘿蔔製作成蘿蔔乾，陳放1年時間，顏色黑金油亮，散發濃濃香氣，老蘿蔔乾非常適合煮雞湯，只要加入老蘿蔔乾就能讓整鍋湯甘甜升級，有畫龍點睛效果。
以好吃的新鮮蘿蔔製成
蘿蔔乾要好吃，蘿蔔是重要主角。以自然栽培兩個月後，蘿蔔長得白白胖胖，將蘿蔔清洗，削掉曝曬到太陽的、或裂開的地方，開始進行醃漬，加粗鹽。遵循古早做法放重石壓出蘿蔔裡的苦水。壓一天，將蘿蔔翻面再壓一天。接著用太陽日曬幾天後，再次醃漬。
過程完全憑手工的經驗，就這樣重複醃漬、天然日曬的步驟直到蘿蔔水分去除。
等待數個月至一年的時間後，就成了年輕蘿蔔乾。而年輕蘿蔔乾繼續陳放下去，就是珍貴的老蘿蔔乾。
