Cooking tips

Daikon can be not only grated, but also cut into thin strips.

Add liquid to dry ingredients in small portions, stirring until you achieve the desired consistency.

You can keep the trimmed edges of the pie for yourself, offering only rectangular pieces to your guests. The pieces can be frozen for future use, wrapped in paper.
