Sweet Ginger Snack Candied

1. 1

   Wash the ginger well and remove the outer skin.

2. 2

   Cut into 2 - 3 mm thick pieces and soak in plenty of water for 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Boil water in a pan, add the ginger, then drain.

4. 4

   Do this 3 times.

5. 5

   Add the drained ginger to a pot, top with the sugar, and heat.

6. 6

   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).

7. 7

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

8. 8

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

9. 9

   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).

10. 10

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