what is mouli?

Question

what is pickled mouli, and is it suitable for vegetarians. Does it have any nutritional value?

Answer 1

Mooli (also known as daikon) is a root vegetable, shaped like a parsnip, but smoother. It's also called Japanese or Chinese radish and is definitely suitable for vegetarians.

You can have it grated in salad, which is tasty, or simmered in soup.

It's low in calories (18 calories per 85g serving) and rich in Vitamin C (34% RDA per 85g serving).

PS: I just thought, my old mum always used to call her Moulinex food processor the "Mouli". I wonder if that's what you meant?!

A mouli grater is a hand-operated cooking tool designed for grating or pureeing small quantities of food. The device consists of a small metal drum with holes that grate the food and a handle for turning the drum. The hand-held unit consists of two sections with hinged handles. The end of one handle contains a food hopper with a grating cylinder and a crank for rotating the cylinder. The other section has a rounded surface that acts as a clamp, pressing the food to be grated into the grating cylinder. The hinged handles are held in one hand and squeezed so that the food presses against the grating cylinder. Meanwhile, the other hand turns the crank, causing the cylinder to rotate and the food to be grated. Mouli is a French brand name that later changed into Moulinex. A grating cylinder similar to the one used in this design later turned up in food processors from that company.

Mooli is the vegetable. A mouli is a large white or metal plastic kitchen utensil with metal plates with holes in them and a handle for turning (e.g. to make boiled potatoes into mashed potatoes with no lumps).

Answer 7

They're right a mooli is a long white radish. It can be grown in the UK and is quite easy - i've grown lots. In India they eat mooli a lot and the hindi word for it is the same. They have it with lemon juice with calms down the hot taste.

Don't know what it's like pickled though.

Answer 8

Mooli is just another name for daikon radish. However, generally when someone refers to mooli, they are talking about the Japanese variety, the Aokubi Daikon. Pickled mooli is most popularly known for its use in sushi. More than likely you have had it before and just didn't realise what is was. It is sliced very thin and usually accompanies sushi at Japanese restaurants.

Answer 9

It is a long white root vegetable that looks like a very long raddish. I have no idea what it tastes like but have seen it in veg shop in areas where Indian and Asian populate. Hounslow high street, middx for example.

Answer 10

I prefer both fruits and fresh vegetables better, regardless how they look and taste. You desire a little of both.
