Sushi ginger, or Gari as its called in Japan, is thinly sliced young ginger that is marinated in vinegar and sugar. The sugar takes away the bitter peppery heat normally present in ginger so it cleans your palate in between sushi dishes. A lot of sushi ginger is artificially coloured pink but ginger is not naturally pink.
Our Saitaku ginger does not use any artificial colouring so it is a natural ginger colour full in flavour with a subtle sweetness
