The ink jet recording method and printed material

The inkjet recording method of the present invention includes an image-forming step, wherein an ink composition containing a compound represented by the formula (1) (Component A-1) and a polymerization initiator (Component B), and having a surface tension at 25°C of 34.0 to 39.0 mN/m, is discharged onto a recording medium from an inkjet head having a nozzle plate, wherein the ink discharging side surface of the nozzle plate has been subjected to an ink-philic treatment, to form an image; and a curing step wherein the discharged ink composition is irradiated with actinic radiation.
