Sweet Ginger Snack Candied

As this is the season for fresh ginger, I made this to stay warm.

When drying, please dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, or dry with an electric fan.
The sugar will become very sticky, so for cleaning your pot, boil some water while using a spatula to scrap it away. That's easiest. Recipe by Sorara82

Ingredients

  1. 300 gramsGinger
  2. 240 gramsWhite sugar (60 - 80% of the ginger)
  3. 1Granulated sugar (as desired)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the ginger well and remove the outer skin. Cut into 2 - 3 mm thick pieces and soak in plenty of water for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Boil water in a pan, add the ginger, then drain. Do this 3 times. Add the drained ginger to a pot, top with the sugar, and heat.

  3. 3

    Bring to a boil on medium heat at first, then reduce to low heat and boil, being careful not to burn (moisture will come out naturally, so don't mix it).

  4. 4

    Once the ginger turns translucent brown, mix slowly until the sugar crystallizes.

  5. 5

    Once the sugar has roughly crystallized, quickly move to a cookie sheet to cool (be careful as the sugar will be sticky).

  6. 6

    Before it completely cools, spread out the ginger so that its not overlapping and allow to dry (if you like a sweet taste, top with granulated sugar).

  7. 7

    Once they're completely dried, place in a storage container and store in the refrigerator.
