  • Leave one hour in a cool place.
  • Rinse and dry the ginger and put into a large jar.
  • Mix rice vinegar and sugar in a pan, bring to a boil.
  • Boil 2 minutes, then pour over ginger slices.
  • Cover the jar and store it in the refrigerator at least 5 days before use.

    nope, the pink ting comes from the slight cooking the ginger gets when the hot syrup is poured over. thanks for asking though!

    Oh wow, how cool is that, a recipe for homemade gari! Thanks for the awesome post! (PS ... how does some gari get that pink tinge, just red food colouring?)
