Pickled ginger, aka gari or sushi ginger, is known in the Eastern culture as a palate cleanser. It is hard to imagine this spicy and delicious condiment cleaning the palate, rather than livening it up.
I enjoy it served with baked ham, all different types of salads and even chopped up and added to tuna. As for the beet juice!? What a great twist of tartness and color!
