I love red pickled ginger, but I worry about the food coloring and additives in the store-bought type. It's also a shame to toss out the plum vinegar from making umeboshi. Simplifying the salting and drying process, I was able to produce a delicious red pickled ginger.There's nothing much to it. All of the amounts are approximate.Just a light sprinkle of salt and enough plum vinegar to cover the ginger.As a rule of thumb, the amount of salt should be 4% the amount of ginger, so you can approximate with the proportion of 100 g ginger to 4 g salt.

I have been making "gari" sushi ginger since I saw a recipe in a book I borrowed from the library some time ago. After making it many times, I've added my own tricks to make improve the results, to create my own gari recipe.The points that I think are important are:● Bring the sweet vinegar sauce to a boil to take the edge of the sharpness of the vinegar● Boil the ginger to eliminate the slightly grassy flavor it has (If you just boil it for 2-3 minutes, it'll retain the crispy texture).● Use good quality vinegar.This gari recipe is quite sweet. Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. Recipe by Raby

My mom's pickled ginger was a bit tough and sour, so I make it with the pickling liquid that I learned how to make after I got married. I enjoy making this each year.If you have leftover pickling liquid, try this:.This pickled ginger shouldn't really be kept a long time (it has moisture); this is something to be made fresh every season. It'll keep longer if you use a clean spoon for every use. Since the ginger is tender, this can be eaten right away.Since the pickling liquid is heated, it takes on the pink color right away.

Great to stock in the fridge for tartar sauce or whenever else you need them.If the top part is exposed, as shown in the photo, cover with plastic wrap to keep air from getting in.
