Pink Shredded Ginger – Beni Shoga 1kg

Beni shoga pickled ginger is the classic garnish for many Japanese dishes. Serve beni shoga with yoki soba, oyokadon, and okonomiyaki. The beautiful red-pink hue and sweet-sharp tang bring welcome contrast to rich fried noodles and rice dishes. Traditionally the red colour in beni shoga pickled ginger would have been from Japanese perilla leaves, but today that is unusual in anything but homemade pickles.

We love to serve beni shoga with teriyaki chicken, or as a garnish with umami-rich mushrooms or fried fish.
