“Ukite Ginger Nee!!” is made by “ Azuma Shokuhin Co., Ltd. ”, which operates in Fukushima Prefecture. We will also share recipes and ways to enjoy this bottle of gems, so please use them as a reference.


Why is it popular? “That’s great, ginger!!”

While bottled foods are being sold by various food manufacturers all over the country, why is the local product ``Ukite Ginger Nee!!'' attracting so much attention? One reason is that it is sold at food stores such as Kaldi. Another reason is that it was recommended by celebrities and featured in the media.

The true identity of ``Yakutte Ginger Nee!!'' is chopped ginger pickled in soy sauce. Umami such as kelp is added to the soy sauce sauce, giving it a deep flavor.

An impactful and easy-to-understand name that will attract ginger lovers. And once you taste it, it's so delicious that you'll want to keep coming back. It's great! Once you get stuck in the swamp, it's hard to get out of it, so be careful. You'll definitely want to keep it on hand.


How to eat ``Successfully ginger!!'': Basic edition

The most basic way to eat Ikutte Ginger Nee!! is on the rice. The king is to put it on top of freshly cooked rice. The hotter the rice, the warmer the ginger will give off a refreshing aroma.

The soy sauce taste is not too strong and the rice does not become salty. The texture of the chopped ginger is crispy and chewy. The refreshing taste of ginger really soaks into the rice, and you'll be able to keep having it as many times as you like.

When you eat natto rice or egg-cooked rice, it might be a good idea to add a little ginger. Please cook more rice than usual and enjoy it.


How to eat “Dekite Ginger Nee!!”: Arranged Recipe Edition

In addition to being a great accompaniment to rice on its own, ginger can also be used as an all-purpose seasoning. I'd like to introduce a recipe idea using Ukite Ginger Hee!!

Grilled pork with ginger

When it comes to dishes using ginger, you can't miss grilled pork with ginger. Anyone can easily make delicious ginger-yaki using Uttete Ginger Nee!!. Rub the pork with cooking sake and a little soy sauce, stir-fry the onions and pork in a frying pan, and mix in the ginger just before finishing. By heating the ginger for a short period of time, the aroma will remain.

Gyoza dipping sauce

Ginger is also great as a dipping sauce for fried dumplings. It turned out to be a delicious dipping sauce without adding any seasonings. The ginger adds a refreshing taste and punch to the gyoza...there's no way it could go wrong! Store-bought frozen gyoza also now have a special feel, just like eating them at a restaurant.

Stir-fried bean sprouts

Ginger can also be used to season stir-fried vegetables. With chicken soup stock, salt, pepper, sesame oil, and ginger, you can make a reasonably priced stir-fried bean sprouts just like a restaurant menu. It is also recommended for getting out of a rut.

Ginger soup

You can enjoy it as ginger soup by diluting it with hot water. Ikite Ginger Nee!! is soy sauce flavored, so of course the ginger soup is soy sauce flavored as well. It may be a good idea to drink it with the image of plum kombucha. I think it can be used as a warm-up companion for people who don't like the sweet and creamy ginger tea powder available on the market.

dip in raw vegetables

Ikite Ginger Nee!! is also delicious just by pouring it over raw vegetables. Sprinkle it on top of chopped cucumbers and tomatoes for a healthy snack. Please enjoy it as if you were in an izakaya.

toppings on ramen

It is a shocking all-purpose product that instantly elevates the taste of even simple ramen such as instant ramen or cup noodles. Just a quick scoop of ginger will spread the umami flavor into the soup and give it a strong ginger punch. It's sure to be an elaborate bowl that will make you want to drink the soup to the end!

Great for instant rice with chicken fillet or tuna.

Simply drizzle boiled chicken fillet or canned tuna with ginger and sesame oil for quick cooking. You'll end up with a delicious dish that's packed with protein. If it wasn't salty enough, you could add soy sauce, and if you wanted more spiciness, you could add chili oil or yuzu pepper. If you make a little extra and keep it in advance, it will come in handy on busy mornings.
