PICKLED CUCUMBERS WITH GINGER

Japanese pickles, or we call it Tsukemono (漬物) in Japanese, is a really important part of the Japanese meal. One or a few kinds of pickles are always served with rice and enjoyed as a garnish or palate cleanser.

Provided by Namiko Chen

Categories     Side Dish

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 Japanese or Persian cucumbers ((8.8 oz, 250 g))
1 tsp kosher salt (Diamond Crystal; use half for table salt) ((5 g; 2% of cucumber weight))
1 knob ginger ((½ inch, 1.3 cm))

Steps:

  • Gather all the ingredients.
  • Rinse the cucumbers and cut both sides of the edge.
  • Rub the 2 piece of cucumbers against each other until you see the small bubbles. It is to remove the bitterness from the cucumber. Discard the two ends.
  • Slice the cucumbers.
  • Peel the ginger and cut into julienne strips.
  • Put the cucumber, salt, and ginger in the Ziploc bag.
  • Remove the air out and seal completely.
  • Place a heavy object on top of the cucumbers and refrigerate it for 1-2 hours. Here I sandwiched the Ziploc bag with two plates and then put the mortar on top. I recommend 3 hours at most otherwise it gets too salty. Check the level of saltiness according to your preference. Enjoy!

PICKLED CUCUMBER WITH GINGER RECIPE



Pickled Cucumber with Ginger Recipe image

A really tasty, quick and easy recipe

Provided by Andrea

Categories     Accompaniments

Time 1h

Yield 3 Jars

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 Whole Cucumber (As fresh and firm as possible)
7 cm Fresh Root Ginger (A nice big fat piece)
1 tsp Sea salt (Preferably Cornish Sea Salt)
65 ml White Wine Vinegar (Organic if available)
55 g Caster Sugar (or soft brown sugar ground in pestle and mortar)
3 pieces Stem Ginger in syrup (Preserved in syrup (mostly sold in jars))

Steps:

  • Wash the cucumber and dry it. Score down the cucumber skin with a fork, you'll need to do this fairly hard so you can see the pattern appear in the surface. Then slice the cucumber in thin slices.
  • Pop the slices of cucumber into big bowl and sprinkle with salt, mix well so all of the slices are covered. Leave to soak for 10 to 15 minutes so they absorb the salt.
  • Rinse the slices really well in cool water, then drain and pop them back into a clean big bowl.
  • Peel and grate the root ginger, I use a garlic rub plate as I prefer the ginger to be a bit more of a pulp than finely grated. Drain about three pieces of stem ginger from the syrup and finely chop, add as much or as little as you like. (I usually do this whilst the cucumber slices are soaking in the salt)
  • Add the sugar and the ginger mix to a small bowl, then pour on the white wine vinegar and mix well. Pour the sugar, ginger and vinegar mixture over the cucumber, it might look like there isn't much pickling liquid but there will be plenty.
  • Bottle in sterilised jars, label and chill for at least an hour before serving
