An information recording method using an optical recording medium includes the steps of forming a plurality of recording pulses to irradiate the optical recording medium and recording information to the optical recording medium by irradiating the recording pulses on the optical recording medium. At least a leading edge of a first recording pulse and a trailing edge of a last recording pulse of the recording pulses shift at a shifting value, wherein the shifting value is determined by combinations of a length of M(n) of a mark being currently written and at least one of a length s(n−1) of a space precedent to the mark and a length s(n+1) of a space subsequent to the mark.
