Ingredients
  

For the Myoga Amazuzuke
  • 4-5 buds Myoga ginger
  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt

Equipment

  • Small Bowl
  • Clean Jar

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Rinse the Myoga ginger buds under cold water and pat them dry.
  2. Step 2: Slice the Myoga ginger thinly. The thinner you slice, the more flavor it will absorb!
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until the sugar and salt are dissolved completely.
  4. Step 4: Place the sliced Myoga ginger in a clean jar and pour the vinegar mixture over the top.
  5. Step 5: Seal the jar and let it sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. For the best flavor, refrigerate and allow it to marinate for a few hours or even overnight.

Notes

Store your Myoga Amazuzuke in the refrigerator for about 1-2 weeks. Use a clean utensil when scooping it out to keep it fresh!
