Pickled ginger (gari) – a Japanese cuisine recipe, almost no Japanese dish is complete without ginger. Pickled ginger is very easy to make at home, but there is one “but”. You can achieve a pink color only with the addition of some dyes, since ginger itself acquires such a color only when it is pickled young. Not so young ginger arrives on the shelves of European countries. You can paint over pickled ginger with beet juice, but it’s still better to get a clean taste of ginger, albeit white, than mixed with beets or other dye. The beneficial properties of ginger are not reduced at all, pickled ginger has the same properties as fresh or dried ginger.
