Narazuke, a traditional Japanese pickle, is made using radish that has been pickled in sake lees. Sake lees are the residual yeast and other particles left after sake production, which impart a unique flavor profile to the pickle. Typically, this process yields a delicately sweet and complexly flavored condiment with a slight alcoholic tinge.
