Zusammenfassung:An ink jet recording method comprising ejecting an ink from a recording head to record an image on a recording medium using an ink jet recording apparatus. The ink jet recording apparatus includes a main tank, a sub tank, and a recording head. The ratio of the maximum ink storage amount of the main tank to the maximum ink storage amount of the sub tank is 3.0 or more to 50.0 or less. The ink contains a pigment and a particular water-soluble organic solvent. The ratio of the water-soluble organic solvent content to the pigment content is 2.0 or more to 10.0 or less. The ink has a temperature at which the ratio of the viscosity of the ink in the recording head to the viscosity of the ink at a temperature of 25° C. is 0.8 or less.
