Ginger candy is made by hand.

The method of making ginger candy by hand:

Ingredients: 500g ginger, 400g sugar.

Accessories: half a cup of clear water.

Steps:

1, ingredients: ginger, sugar.

2. Cut the ginger into pieces about 3mm thick.

3. Soak the ginger slices in clear water for several hours, and change the water several times during this period. I do it at night and in the morning.

4. Put the soaked ginger slices into a boiling pot, add sugar and half a glass of water.

5. After the big fire boils, change it to a small fire and boil the added water and the water in the ginger.

6. Turn off the fire quickly when the syrup in the pot can be extracted (the whole boiling process takes about 30 minutes).

7. After cooking, pour ginger and syrup into a stainless steel basin or non-stick pan and stir fry quickly with chopsticks. Note that there is no fire in this one.

8. Stir-fry until the syrup comes out of sand and stick it on ginger slices to become dry sugar sand. You can stop stirring and then cool naturally.

9. After natural cooling, put it into a sealed can.
