Raw daikon is hacked into rough chunks with a nata, a heavy pruning hatchet, so the cut faces are ragged and soak up flavour. The chunks are scalded, salted briefly, drained and then pickled for about a week in amazake (a sweet rice-koji drink) and sugar under a weight.

Raw daikon is hacked into rough chunks with a nata, a heavy pruning hatchet, so the cut faces are ragged and soak up flavour. The chunks are scalded, salted briefly, drained and then pickled for about a week in amazake (a sweet rice-koji drink) and sugar under a weight. Made in 4 steps over 8 days – 9 days. The longest step, drain, add amazake and sugar, and weight down, takes 7 days (MAFF うちの郷土料理 (Our Regional Cuisines) 2026). Salt is 2 % (MAFF うちの郷土料理 (Our Regional Cuisines) 2026).
Natazuke is a nama-zuke (fresh pickle) of raw daikon, like kakizuke, rather than a dried or smoked daikon like iburigakko. The hatchet cut, not a knife, is what gives it its name and texture.
Yokote (Sakaimachi) versionThe Akita prefecture survey (2024) records it as daikon pickled in salt and amazake, where the amazake gave sweetness when sugar was scarce; it is now split with a knife, not a hatchet.
