Recipe: Four "Carrot" Soup - combining varieties of radish, carrot and burdock for a refreshing dish

In Chinese, the same word is used for "carrot" and "radish", which is why the Singaporean "fried carrot cake" doesn't actually have Western "carrots" in them, but rather shredded radish. But besides the linguistic association of these two veggies, there is also the gastronomical association in Chinese culture. Carrot and radish is often used together in cooking, especially in soups. Carrots aside, what I didn't know was that there were quite a number of varieties of radish proper until I had this home-made soup, which I'll take the liberty to name the "four carrot soup".
