    Detailed Description

     

    Beni Shōga is the bright red, savory, and sour pickled ginger that serves as a vital condiment in Japanese cuisine. Unlike the sweet Gari served with sushi, Beni Shōga is pickled in umezu (ume plum vinegar), giving it a distinct salty and sour tang. The intense red color traditionally comes from the natural pigment of red shiso (perilla) leaves used in the pickling process.

    Cut into thin strips, this pickle is not typically eaten on its own, but rather piled onto rich, savory dishes where its pungent, acidic flavor acts as a powerful palate cleanser and flavor enhancer. A sprinkle of Beni Shōga instantly brightens up both the appearance and the taste of your meal.
