Ingredients

  1. 50 gramsGinger
  2. 50 gramsHoney
  3. 1 tspLemon juice

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Freeze the ginger, skin and all.

  2. 2

    Grate the ginger without peeling the skin. Freezing the ginger makes it easier to grate since the fibers are brittle and don't get hairy.

  3. 3

    Put the grated ginger and honey into a sauce pan and simmer. When it starts to simmer, add lemon juice, and briskly stir.

  4. 4

    Store in a clean jar.

  5. 5

    Mix with hot water to make a hot ginger drink, or put it in your black tea to make ginger tea. Either way, it'll warm you up.

  6. 6

    Spread on bread. I also recommend putting it in yogurt.

  7. 7

    Here is an apple and ginger jam. All you have to do is grate 1/4 of an apple into the ginger jam when simmering. It will give a fruity touch.

  8. 8

    When I used brown sugar in place of honey, it gave the jam a deep flavor. The color is not so appetizing, though.
