Provided is a recording method with which wasteful consumption of the M number (M/#) of the recording material is prevented, and with which the recording density is improved. An optical information recording device that utilizes interference between signal light and reference light to record information on an optical information recording medium is equipped with: a light source that emits light toward an optical recording medium; a beam-splitting element that splits the emission light emitted from the light source into signal light and reference light; and a reference light angle control unit that controls the incidence angle of the reference light with respect to the optical information recording medium. The optical recording medium is irradiated with the signal light as a spherical wave and is irradiated with the reference light as a planar wave, and when information is recorded on the optical information recording medium, the optical information recording medium is irradiated such that there exists in the interior of the optical information recording medium a region which is exposed only to the signal light, a region which is exposed only to the reference light, and a region which is exposed to overlapping signal light and reference light.
