Instructions
- Prepare the ginger rhizomes by scrubbing them under running water.
- Cut stems off leaving the red part attached to rhizomes.
- Slice the ginger rhizomes as thin as possible with a slicer *2
- Boil water in a pot and parboil the sliced ginger.
- Drain the parboiled water and scatter the sliced ginger on a cooling tray and set aside.
- Place vinegar, sugar, salt and kelp dashi powder in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Turn the heat off when the sugar and dashi powder has dissolved.
- Squeeze the sliced and parboiled ginger to remove excess water.
- Place the ginger in a container and pour the vinegar mixture over while the vinegar is still hot. The ginger colour will turn to pink straight away.
- Let it cool and refrigerate. You can start to eat after three hours pickled in the vinegar.
Notes
- *1 You can find kelp (konbu) dashi powder from Japanese or Asian grocery stores. If you can not find Kombu Dashi Powder try online.
- *2 I set my slicer slice at 0.5mm (0.02inch).
