On my blog, I'm introducing how you can reduce the pungency of ginger and tanginess, that's the beauty of homemade! You can customize however you want it to be! please try the dressing using left over marinate showing very at the end! That's the taste of summer!! For more vegetable dishes, watch this playlist! kzbin.info/aero/PLd2bpmPI5Yuf-6Id-Q8SC_yVXpK4ccXgl Thank you for watching!!!

Dear Miwa-san, I made this pickled ginger and it is amazing! The taste is so fresh, so wonderfully sweet and sour at the same time. I love how you suggested to adjust the blanching time to adjust the pungency. The only problem is that I just could not wait overnight for the flavors to ripen. If it is this good fresh, cannot wait to taste it tomorrow 😁

Found this channel a couple of days ago and have already watched a lot :) Love your energy and how much love you put into everything you do. Your family is lucky to have you. Also, I’ve already fallen for Japanese cuisine, it seems very healthy, diverse and mouthwatering 🙂 Now my goal is to prepare my own miso soup from scratch, maybe will have it first in a restaurant to have the right idea if the taste😅 Thank you for this channel and nice relaxing music you put into the videos. Looking forward to see more

I finally started making this and now we always have a cute jar of homemade gari in the fridge that I plan to restock every few weeks with a new batch. I also showed my mom how we will use the pickling juice to make a salad dressing later once the gari is used up. I, too, was enjoying having my hands smell of ginger. :3

[@GreenLifeInDublin]

Thanks for the recipe, I always wanted to try to make it! Did not know the recipe has so much sugar though.. Loved seeing a bit of Japan in the vlog portion.

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

thank you very much for your kind word!!! to balance out with the tanginess of the vinegar, there are usually lots of sugar contained. If you reduce the amount of vinegar, you can reduce the amount of sugar too! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the vlog part!

Goodness I miss Okinawa. I was craving Cocos and their pickled ginger that they have when you sit down in the restaurant and that's how I ended up here lol.

[@debgamble8368]

Oh Miwa, now I REALLY miss Japan! 😂 Your trip was fantastic and it looks like everyone enjoyed the train trip, the ekiben, the museum and the hotel 🥰 Thank you so much for the ginger recipe. I usually buy mine in the supermarket but I want to make my own to avoid unnecessary chemicals. By the way, I recently made chirashi sushi and followed your instructions to make the rice. I was so happy with the way it turned out. Thank you 🙏

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

of you did!!??? So happy to hear that!!! pickled ginger will be perfect to mix into the chirashizushi! Im also glad to hear that you enjoyed the trip vlog!

God bless..awesome..tx

[@anchulwalia]

Nice video, this is like pickles we makes in our INDIA, even ginger is main ingredient we use in our all dishes

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

One of my viewer from India also told me you guys go through lots of ginger! I love Indian food with spices!!

[@ItstheK]

Ever since I learned that pickled ginger cleans the palette, I started eating it "the right way" instead of a seasoning. It really helps me appreciate milder flavors like the sweetness of rice, if I can wash the stronger flavors off my tongue first. I love the taste of ginger, so I have to try this recipe! (Sometimes what I get at the store has a really pungent vinegar flavor that I don't like)

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

you know the nest way to incorporate pickled ginger into your meals!! If you find it's a little bitter, blanch ginger longer before you soaked them into the marinade! please adjust the amount of vinegar too if you are sensitive to tanginess. it's listed on my blog!

[@mikasuson2329]

Miwa San! Your trip looked amazing, I bet your boys loved the Dino hotel! I’m looking forward to taking my girls on a Shinkansen and eating Ekiben too.🍱🚅 I like to eat pickled ginger with sushi the most. My husband loves to eat benishoga with many dishes😂 I really want to try the dressing with the tofu salad! 😋. Thank you Miwa San for all of your wonderful ideas!

[@tamara4557]

I'm trying to remember if I ever tried making gari.... perhaps one time many years ago. But since it's so readily available even here in Europe I usually buy it ready made. It is more difficult to find young/really fresh ginger here. But I probably should try making it next time I have a whole ginger root. Last time I had a whole ginger root (usually buy the readily grated jars for convenience) I made ginger tsukudani. Have you ever tried gari chahan? or I even mix some chopped up gari through the sushi rice when making chirashi sushi to get my daughter used to the taste. or I use it in tempura batter (instead of beni shoga for a milder taste) It's great with tofu or chicken. What I great idea to make a dressing with leftover liquid (even if you buy ready made).

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

never made a chahan with that!!! But that's definitely on my list on this weekend lunch!!!! Sounds so tasty! you always come up with the ideas I never come up with!!! So inspiring!!!

[@tamara4557]

@@MiwasJapaneseCooking I just like reading Japanese cooking magazines :) but I have to adapt to what's available in Europe so sometimes that creates "new" dishes. The gari chahan is great with eggs

[@Grungy1]

Can you use Splenda or other artificial sweetener?

[@ima7333]

Miwa san, does the liquid of gari taste like ginger? It would make a really great oil free dressing w/ some soy sauce and sesame paste. Thank you sharing the gari recipe.

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

yes, you can really taste the ginger! So it's a great idea to make dressing with soy sauce and sesame paste!! thank you very much for your great inspiration Ima!

[@ares6953]

i love the ginger smell too ! I have a question it is possible to make it with the minimum sugar possible ? because i´ve seen that there is quite a lot of sugar involved in the recipe .

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

yes it has a lot of sugar contained. you can reduce the amount of vinegar and add more water to reduce the sugar content. I tried a couple time, and the ratio I showed in the video was good to me.BUT I totally understand that's a lot of sugar. 😅

[@ChiaraBettaglio]
