[@xenoblue]

Ur amazing... Thank you

[@Blue-hf7xt]

Jeff B Thanks I kept rewinding video.

[@velvettatum3173]

Thank you for sharing your recipe, and may I ask where to get shiso leaves in UK?

[@2wheeler58]

So nice that someone would take the time to help others. Thank you so much. 👍💜

[@2wheeler58]

Is there any reason why purple cabbage couldn't be used for coloring?

[@elizabethcook5922]

Instead of the leaves to color them, I boiled some pieces of red cabbage with the rice vinegar mixture. Success! It turned pink!

[@suemarie6032]

I also read a slice of beets will do it too.

[@DarkMoonDroid]

@Elizabeth Thanks! I need a keto alternative.

[@matsamnicfam]

Great ideas! Thanks !

[@dlcmac]

I could not find red Shiso anywhere. Only green. Used red cabbage

[@gimmelmom]

I was thinking radishes, but I'll try the cabbage! Thanks!

[@squrle-6055]

I have an unstoppable love for ginger . Without it, I have a hole in my heart that could only be possibly filled by sushi or even more ginger.

[@squrle-6055]

And yes, I am going to try this!

[@MakeSushi1]

Hahahhaha that was well said indeed 😁👍 so you definitely going to be making this, I hope you enjoy your homemade pickled ginger!

[@Mr.Helper.]

would you wear a ginger shirt

[@MakeSushi1]

sure why not

[@Sara-tj2rq]

sameeee

[@和食の技術チャンネル]

It is a Japanese cook. It is worth respecting that foreigners make up to gully. great. I support you from Japan!!

[@jovanapejakov2000]

Works well with apple vinegar if you don't have rice vinegar, also it tastes the same even without shiso leafs.

[@loism1965]

Yes

[@subhamhalder3431]

what about non fruit vinegar

[@jovanapejakov2000]

Recently made some with white vinegar, tastes almost the same. @@subhamhalder3431

[@MakeSushi1]

*had to re-upload this because there was a tiny mistake in the first version.*

[@GrillWasabi]

How To Make Sushi I believe in any cooking there's no mistakes as long as it taste good to you. But thanks for sharing this recipe! I didn't know you can use shizo leaves to achieve that color!

[@MakeSushi1]

it wasn't really to do with the cooking, there was a typo in an ingredient that was shown on screen. but thanks! I have also heard others use beetroot juice to change the color but never tried that.

[@GrillWasabi]

How To Make Sushi Oh i have lots of typo on my videos but i don't feel like redoing it haha. I like the shizo leaves idea better.

[@eriaku4825]

Still you said 300 grams of rice vinegar which is 300 ml not grams, so its okay to make mistakes just make a note using the annotation option and write your notes.. Really enjoyed that one, never seen a recipe like that before Thank you

[@MakeSushi1]

when it comes to liquids unless your dealing with something think, grams and ml are the same, 1gram of water= 1 ml of water. also, they disabled annotation notes a while back now there are just end cards or those cards that appear in the top right corner. thanks for enjoying this ginger recipe.

[@semdalian]

Heya! Just wanted to let you know you inspired me to start making sushi when I was about eleven. Since you uploaded your first video's I copied them and started to make my own creations. Right now I give small sushi workshops and made sushi for people with dementia (who loved it!) I'm planning to come with a new sushi-related concept in a while. Ty for inspiring me :) [EDIT]: I'm 16 now

[@MakeSushi1]

That is awesome!!! This was a great comment to read, its amazing that you got started so early and it makes me happy I inspired you 😄👍 Im glad your making the world a better place by teaching others, its a very noble thing to do.

[@squrle-6055]

Just realized the exact thing happened to me, he inspired me when I was 7. I don’t make sushi for a living but make it for fun. I also go to local sushi restaurant every Wednesday with my grandmother.

[@supriyasou3722]

You’re 19 now ☺️ How’s life now? Did you continue your cooking journey?

[@MayimHastings]

So proud of you!

[@pamelarodriguez735]

And u can also try to use "beetroots" instead of leaves or red cabbage .. Beetroots really perfect compliments with ginger roots 👌🏻😘

[@kmg501]

I love pickled ginger, can never get enough of it.

[@MakeSushi1]

yes, I love pickled ginger as well, so I assume you will be making this very soon, right?

[@kmg501]

Nope, thank goodness for division of labor. :-D

[@mwendapoleee]

Me too but do i have to boil it.

[@matt96533]

what size jar did you use?

[@asplendidaffair]

When filling the jar with ginger he says not use your fingers, then proceeds to his fingers for the shiso leaves.

[@MakeSushi1]

That is a fair point, I should have used gloves 🧤

[@leavemealonewillya]

But how important is it though? Just curious

[@GarouLady]

When using your fingers, no matter how much you scrub you could introduce bacteria to the pickles, causing them to go bad. Rice Vinegar doesn't have the acidity strong enough to kill off bacteria whereas white vinegar can.

[@topemeister3000]

@@leavemealonewillya it really isn't that important

[@topemeister3000]

@Crude Wildfire I hear that brother, I'm a professional chef and when I pickle at home I don't use gloves. Hell, most restaurants don't tend to use gloves unless you're pickling something for an extremely long time (which doesn't tend to happen due to health & safety legislations)

[@dahorseyguy1]

I looked up "SHISO" and thought that it looked familiar, so I investigated further, and ran outside, IT IS GROWING WILD MY YARD!!! I live in Missouri, and I've been cooking with it for over 20 years. If KZbin would let me post a picture I would show you.

[@boggless2771]

Lol that's awesome

[@mariwillalwaysgivethanks]

I made this without the shiso leaves and it is amazing. I can't eat my salmon steaks WITHOUT pickled giner and wasabi paste. YUM!!!!!

[@stoykomarinov]

From experience - I made some pickled old ginger using a very similar method (without colouring) and it lasted more than 2 months. To be exact, after year and a half in the fridge it was still good tasting and no mold/bacteria has started to grow.

[@MakeSushi1]

Yeah I know but I have to low ball it incase people are unhygienic when preparing this, cant risk making people sick 😷

[@stoykomarinov]

I understand what you mean, it is good that you consider such things!. Advice I can give for those situations with regards to safety/longer preservation for people that are unsure if they have done it correctly: - Boiling (cooking in boiling water) the container for at least 15 minutes to vacuum seal it and kill off any germs inside; - After opening the container just keep it in the fridge and use clean utensils to take ginger out (e.g. don't use the fork you're eating with to pick ginger from the jar, the saliva will contaminate it) but inspect the way it looks and the smell before consumation every time. This way you will know how it smells and looks freshly open and will notice if something changes. These 2 steps make sure that the ginger is way safer for consumation after longer periods. I found that boiling the jar does not change the taste and texture of the ginger in any weird way. Hope this helps! P.S. - These steps also apply to everything you want to pickle for long-term preservation.

[@wilkbor]

Just tried a variation on this and look forward to trying it in a week. Thanks for the video.

[@baseballhunter42]

Glad to see the recipe is for regular ginger. Bought a whole bunch of that, then I start looking at recipes and kept seeing young ginger.

[@almalibre88]

I tried this recipe and I can't believe how much better it tastes than the store bought sushi ginger I had in the past. Thank you so so much!! ♡

[@MakeSushi1]

Im very happy you tried making this and enjoyed it!!! Thanks for commenting Georgia 😄👍 Btw, I could use some help growing my channel, please share this video with your friends, thank you!!!

Georgia Trikili The only brand I know that makes great authentic ginger pickles, Eden foods.

[@matt96533]

what size jar did you use?

[@Bitchovski]

You the Man!! Wish I had thought of tubing this before. We (Fam of 5) are having 8 "rolls" of Sushi tonight 😍 Your rice method is the best, I just add a tad more vinegar. Tonight it's two combinations 1. Smoked salmon, cucumber & mango. 2. Crab sticks, cucumber & avocado dipped in soy & really good wasabi 😎 Thanks for the tips ✌

[@TheTferrer]

Just tried this recipe - delicious and simple.

[@angelicachristie3371]

Thanks a lot for this recipe! I followed it as instructed and the its delicious and just the way I want it. Now I finally have my own supply of pickled ginger that I always want!

[@cleretfernandes5972]

Can I ask ..how is the taste ..?? Is it sweet plesent to have ?? Or sour ??

[@ThePhoenixTube007]

Thank you so much I was looking for this long time ago because I love pickle ginger every time that I buy sushi !

[@MakeSushi1]

Thank you Fénix 007, also please take a second to share the video it really helps me thanks.

[@kenough90]

Shiso plants are really easy to grow and they grow pretty quick and seeds are pennies. We grow a bunch of it in the garden. (I'm on the east coast USA)

[@suemarie6032]

Looks super simple and I'm glad it last for months. I will try it when I have something to colour it with. I have never seen those leaves but heard a slice of beets will do the trick. Thanks for sharing!

[@suemarie6032]

@Dark of the knight At the end of the video, he says it keeps for 2-3 months.

[@user-mv5ne5gc4n]

awesome, you made this video just in time. I have a lot of ginger and don't know what to do with it. Thank you

[@MakeSushi1]

perfect!, let me know how your pickled ginger turns out 😁

[@MrNurseinTExas]

amazing instructional video, thanks!

[@mattikallio4812]

Very nicely presented. Thank you!

[@purplealice]

If you don't mind my asking, where on earth do you live that you can't get fresh young ginger, but you can get shisho leaves?

[@MakeSushi1]

Well for a long time I was not able to get shiso either, its just because I found a distributer that sells specialist products for heigh end restaurants. Anyway, living in Spain.

[@purplealice]

Here in the US, I can often find young, red-tipped ginger in the regular supermarket - and there's an Asian grocery ten minutes away. (Although they don't sell real mirin - I buy that in Whole Foods.)

[@purplealice]

In a suburb of New York City. Fresh ginger is available in any supermarket, but I need to go to the Asian market to get shisho leaves?

[@Yusufsanad]

If you don't mind me asking. How in hell you manage to know the age of that ginger because to me there's no tells Please i need you to reply

[@xenoblue]

Hell yeah murica!!!! We got everything n this fucked up country

[@xondominique2602]

i made it and it's delish. just finished a second batch. i first tried slicing the ginger with a peeler but then found out just a knife works even better for me. thanks for the detailed recipe!

Thanks I made it.. my mandolin didn’t slice thin enough so I had to use a knife. I used dried hibiscus flower in the water/vinegar boil to make my ginger pink. It worked perfect. It’s the same colour as the stuff you get at sushi joints.

Didn’t touch the gigner to avoid bacteria but you were all over the shisho leaves with your hands 😂

[@Potchekansky]

The reason why the peeling part looks sped up to some people is most likely because you're using the 180 degree rule when filming the video. 24 fps with 48 or 50 shutter speed. The motion blur produced from this combo is probably what makes your hand motions look a lot quicker than they are, if you were to film in 60p, I think then it wouldn't look as "sped up". Anyway cool video!
