Turnip Salad

This is one of my favorite foods
to snack on.
Long time ago in Szechuan, there
would be these small street
vendors who sold this type of
turnip salad to kids.
I used to buy it all the time. For a
few pennies, I could buy a handful
and munch on them. When I had no money, I’d search high and
low in my house for pennies.
Too bad these vendors aren’t around anymore… I guess you can’t
really make a living selling food for a few pennies these days.
Now I’m going to show you how to make this turnip salad. I
hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.
Ingredients:
Salted turnip … 400g (1pack)
Sugar … 4 – 6 teaspoons
Light soy sauce … 1 tablespoon (optional)
Green onions … 3 – 4
Chili oil … 3 – 5 teaspoons
Grinded peppercorn … 1 – 2 teaspoons
Sesame oil … 4 – 6 teaspoons

1. Rinse the turnips under water first to wash of any salt.
2. Cut the turnips into 2inch long, thin strips. After you cut it,
run it through cold water one more time, and drain it well.
3. Cut the green onion into 1 ½ inch long, thin strips.
4. In a bowl, mix sugar, soy sauce, chili oil, grinded peppercorn,
and sesame oil.
5. Mix the green onions with the turnip.
6. Pour on the sauce, and mix well with the turnips, and serve.
