[PAR] [TLE] Daikon [SEP] Daikon (大根 , literally "big root") , also known by many other names depending on context, is a mild-flavored winter radish ("") usually characterized by fast-growing leaves and a long, white, napiform root.  Originally native to Southeast or continental East Asia, daikon is harvested and consumed throughout the region (as well as in South Asia). [PAR] [TLE] Turnip cake [SEP] Turnip cake () is a Chinese dim sum dish made of shredded radish (typically Chinese radish) and plain rice flour.  The less commonly used radish cake is a more accurate name, in that Western-style turnips are not used in the dish; it is traditionally called carrot cake in Singapore.  It is commonly served in Cantonese "yum cha" and is usually cut into rectangular slices and sometimes pan-fried before serving.  Each pan-fried cake has a thin crunchy layer on the outside from frying, and is soft on the inside.  The non-fried version is soft all over.  It is one of the standard dishes found in the dim sum cuisine of Hong Kong and China as well as overseas Chinatown restaurants.  It is also commonly eaten during Chinese New Year, since the word for radish (菜頭, "chhài-thâu") is a homophone for "good fortune" (好彩頭, "hó-chhái-thâu") in the Hokkien language.  In Taiwan, turnip cake is also commonly eaten as part of a breakfast.
