Hello everyone, today we're going to show you how to make 2 types of Japanese pickled ginger: Gari (ガリ/新生姜の甘酢漬け) and red pickled ginger (紅しょうが).
Gari and red pickled ginger are two types of tsukemono. Gari is marinated by sugar and vinegar, so it tastes sweet and sour, and is often served with sushi and sashimi, so it's called sushi ginger, too. Red pickled ginger is julienned young ginger pickled in red plum vinegar, so the red color is from the vinegar. Red pickled ginger is often served with donburi such as gyūdon and katsudon. They both are most common pickles can be found in Japan.
As we know, ginger is very useful in improving stomach performance and digestion. It’s why most Asian people prefer ginger in the fresh form. It increase the flavor of their dishes. Sushi ginger and red ginger are so easy to make, you can make it a little as you need to stay in the refrigerator in summer times. Hope you like this video. Enjoy. :-)
