pickled ginger
Pink palate cleanser
Pickled ginger is thin slices of young ginger root preserved in vinegar and sugar, typically served as a palate cleanser alongside sushi.
It has a sharp, slightly sweet flavor and a distinctive pink or pale yellow color.
The Japanese term is *gari*: I always eat the pickled ginger between different kinds of fish.
