1. An ink jet recording method comprising:
discharging ultraviolet curable ink containing vinyl ether group-containing (meth)acrylate ester(s) expressed by the following General Formula (I) onto a recording medium, wherein:
the ultraviolet curable ink contains other monofunctional (meth)acrylate other than the vinyl ether group-containing (meth)acrylate ester(s) expressed by General Formula (I), wherein a content of the vinyl ether group-containing (meth)acrylate esters expressed by the following General Formula (I) is 35% by mass or less with respect to a total content of the ink, and the other monofunctional (meth)acrylate contains one or more of monofunctional (meth)acrylate having an aromatic ring skeleton, or isobornyl(meth)acrylate; and
curing the ultraviolet curable ink which is landed on the recording medium by irradiating the ink with ultraviolet light from an ultraviolet light emitting diode in which peak intensity of the irradiated ultraviolet light is in a range of equal to or more than 800 mW/cm2;
CH2═CR1—COOR2—O—CHCH—R3  (I)
(in the formula, R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R2 represents a divalent organic residue having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, and R3 represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic residue having 1 to 11 carbon atoms).
