4 radishes, very thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup unseasoned rice-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons Sriracha, plus more for serving (optional)

Toss carrots, cucumber, radishes, vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Mix mayonnaise and Sriracha in another bowl.
