Candied ginger
For those who like it hot... Delicious and as a treat (provided of course that you love ginger), and as an additive for baking. Especially good in muffins and Christmas cakes.

Ingredients

  • Ginger

    200 g

  • Sugar

    6 Tbsp

  • Water

    3 Tbsp

Cooking

step-0
Ginger wash, to clean. In Asian restaurants, it is clean as new potatoes - with a spoon. It is very important to choose the "right" ginger. When you make a purchase, choose the lightest roots without mold between the nodules. These are usually the most fresh, juicy roots
step-1
Cut into thin plates. I used the slicer. Put in a saucepan, pour water so that it just lightly covers the plate.
step-2
Cook over medium heat for 30 minutes until tender. Ginger drain the water (do not pour). This pungent broth I make a nice ginger tea - add water, honey (sugar), and lemon (I had lime)
step-3
Boiled plate again and place in a saucepan, add sugar and water. If you have a different amount of ginger, then proportions of the ginger-sugar-water such as: sugar the same as ginger (not by weight but by volume), water two times less sugar
step-4
And cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until the syrup thickens and it almost does not remain.
step-5
Take out of syrup on each plate, and dip in sugar (I have brown and plain white). In the sugar add lemon acid on a knife tip. The remaining syrup add the ginger tea
step-6
Spread on a baking paper. After 10 minutes you can fold it in a container with a lid. Is kept for 3 months.
