In etching processing of silicon, in particular anisotropic etching processing of silicon in a manufacturing step of MEMS parts, an etching liquid having a long life of etching liquid and an etching method are provided by suppressing a lowering of an etching rate at the time of warming which is characteristic of a hydroxylamine-containing etching liquid. A silicon etching liquid which is an alkaline aqueous solution containing an alkali metal hydroxide, hydroxylamine and an inorganic carbonate compound and having a pH of 12 or more and which is able to anisotropically dissolve monocrystalline silicon therein, and an etching method of silicon using this etching liquid are provided.
