Suguki turnips are peeled, salted in wooden barrels, pressed under a long weighted lever, then put in a warm room (muro) at about 40 °C to sour by lactic fermentation. Salt is the only ingredient, and the pickle is ready in about half a month.

Suguki turnips are peeled, salted in wooden barrels, pressed under a long weighted lever, then put in a warm room (muro) at about 40 °C to sour by lactic fermentation. Salt is the only ingredient, and the pickle is ready in about half a month. Made in 4 steps over 7 days. The longest step, warm in the muro, takes 7 days (Kikkoman Food Forum 2015) and runs at 40 °C (MAFF 2026). Lactic acid bacteria; the strain Lactobacillus brevis KB290 was isolated from suguki does most of the fermenting.
Suguki is pickled with salt alone and ranks with senmaizuke and shibazuke as one of Kyoto's three great pickles [maff-suguki]. The warm muro step speeds up lactic fermentation to about half a month, where the old method at natural temperature finished in spring to summer [maff-suguki].
Jikō-nare (seasonal ripening)The old method without a muro, left to ferment at the natural temperature; ready in spring to summer and eaten as a summer delicacy in the Edo period.
Safety
Japan's health ministry defines a pickle that keeps for 7 days or more at room temperature as one with salt at 4 % or more, or pH 4.0 or lower, or salt at 3 % to under 4 % with pH 4.6 or lower [mhlw2013]. The same notice lists lactic-fermented pickles such as sunki and sauerkraut under "other pickles". This is a general rule for Japanese pickles; the sources read give no pH or salt value for suguki itself.
Suguki pickling is said to have begun in the early Edo period, made at first only by the shake families of Kamigamo Shrine and presented to the imperial palace. Later Edo-period farmers near the shrine made it, but a ban kept it from leaving the village, and it spread through the city only after the Meiji Restoration.
