These candied ginger pieces are a super snack for between meals and the heat gives them a bit of a kick! You can boil the ginger first without sugar (like tea) to reduce the heat a little. However, we like it hot and therefore boiled the ginger directly in the sugar. Tip: Don't throw away the syrup when draining. It tastes delicious in porridge or in a drink.

To cook the ginger

Place the ginger, coconut palm sugar, lemon and water in a pan, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, simmer for approx. 30 mins. Drain the ginger (see tip). Spread the ginger on a tray, leave to cool.

To dry the ginger

Toss the pieces of ginger individually in the sugar, place on baking paper, leave to dry for approx. 2 hrs.

Good to know
Tip: The ginger water can be used as a syrup. Place a sieve in a bowl, pour the ginger into the sieve, retaining the syrup. Pour the syrup into a bottle, seal the bottle, leave to cool and store tightly sealed in the fridge. It will taste great with yoghurt, quark or porridge, and can also be used for sweetening tea and other drinks.
