... Read more土用干しは「晴れが続くタイミングを逃さない」のがいちばん大事でした。私は竹ざるに梅と紫蘇の葉を広げ、風通しの良い屋外(直射日光+風)に置いて天日干しします。ポイントは“重ねない”こと。梅同士がくっつくと乾きムラが出やすく、そこから傷みが進むことがあるので、間隔をあけて並べています。 干している間は、朝に出して夕方に取り込み、夜露に当てないようにしています。夜露で表面が湿ると、せっかく乾いた皮が戻ってしまい、雑菌が増えやすい気がしました。裏返しは1日1回。皮が破れやすいので、私は手でつままず、清潔な菜箸やスプーンでそっと転がすようにしています。紫蘇の葉も一緒に干すと香りが立って見た目もきれいで、干し上がりの“濃い紫”が嬉しいポイントです。 よく検索される「梅干しのカビ(ピンク)」については、私も最初かなり不安でした。目安として、ふわっとした毛(白・青・黒)や、ぬめり・異臭がある場合は要注意。一方で、紫蘇由来の色移りで“赤〜ピンクっぽく見える”こともあります。判断に迷う時は、表面を軽く拭って取れるか、匂いがいつもの梅酢っぽい酸味かを確認しています。少しでも怪しい時は、無理に食べずに状態を優先した方が安心でした。 干し上がりのサインは、表面が少し硬くなってシワが増え、持ち上げた時にベタつきが減る感じ。ここまで来たら梅酢へ戻して味をなじませます。私は戻す前に梅酢を一度ざっと確認し、濁りや異臭がないかチェックしてから入れています。 ちなみに「梅干し 浄化 スピリチュアル」系の話も見かけますが、私の場合は“天日干しでしっかり乾いて、香りが立つ”だけで気分が整いました。手間はかかるけれど、晴れの日にざるを並べる時間がちょっとしたリセットになっています。
