Recipe Pickled Ginger Root

[The Late Night Gourmet]

Pickled ginger is a necessity when it comes to sushi, but it can also be used any time there’s a need to accent your food.

Ingredients

2 ounces ginger root
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp soy sauce

Directions

1. Peel ginger root using a teaspoon to get around all the nooks and crannies. Slice ginger as thinly as possible.

2. Boil enough water to cover the ginger. Boil ginger for 2 minutes. Strain through a sieve and set aside.

3. Heat remaining ingredients until sugar is completely dissolved. Add ginger and allow to rest for 10 minutes.

4. Place ginger in a jar with vinegar solution. Refrigerate. Drain if desired and refrigerate.
