A water-based ink for ink-jet recording, which is excellent in curling suppression after printing, printing density and storage stability, and an ink-jet recording method using the same. [1] A water-based ink for ink-jet recording comprising a pigment, a compound represented by the following general formula (1) and / or (2), and water, and having a water content of 50 to 65% by weight. Using the aqueous ink for inkjet recording, wherein the total content of the compounds represented by the following general formulas (1) and (2) is 10 to 30% by weight, [2] the aqueous ink of [1], An inkjet recording method for printing on plain paper in one pass, wherein the water content in water-based ink ejected per unit area of plain paper is 0.2 to 1.0 mg / cm 2. Is the method. R 1 -O- (CH 2 CH 2 O) n-H (1) R 1 -O- (CH 2 CH 2 O) m-R 2 (2) (In the formula, R 1 and R 2 represent an aliphatic group having 2 to 5 carbon atoms or an alicyclic group having 3 to 5 carbon atoms, n and m represent an average number of added moles, and both are 6 ~ 9.)
