Since it is close to the original species as it has not been improved to prevent pests and diseases, it is grown carefully. Although this vegetable is normally harvested in the fall, it is also planted for summer harvest and produced twice a year. Local people have been eating it as a pickle for a long time. It has a unique spiciness that is different from that of chili peppers or wasabi, and grated Kurotsubo turnip is used as a condiment for soba, sashimi, yakiniku, and other dishes.
