The recipe of handmade ginger candy is simple and easy to learn, and novices can succeed once, so their hands and feet are no longer cold in winter.

Hello, everyone. I am Lao Zuo, a post-90 s generation who loves to study food. Recently, the temperature is getting lower and lower, and it is easy to catch a cold. I will share with you a method of handmade ginger candy. The formula and method are very simple, and it can be done in two steps. You can make a little more at a time and keep it warm in a fresh-keeping bag. The prepared ginger candy can be eaten directly, drunk with water, and made into a cup to keep the whole family warm. Friends with cold hands and feet in winter must try. Let's see how it is done!

Exercise:

1, prepare a piece of ginger of about 400g. Ginger skin is cold. Scrape it off with a knife, scrape it as clean as possible, and then rinse it with clean water.

2. Cut the washed ginger into pieces and put it in the cooking machine. Pour about 100g water to make ginger paste. It is not advisable to add too much water to make it muddy. The less the better, the more cooking time will be increased.

3. Pour the beaten ginger paste into a non-stick pan and add 400g maltose and 300g brown sugar. If there is no brown sugar, you can use white sugar or rock sugar instead.

4. Continue to cook on low heat and continue to stir. This process must not be lazy. With the extension of boiling time, the color of water will become darker and darker.

5. Finally, take out a little with chopsticks and put it in cold water to cool down quickly. Finally, the hardness of a pinch by hand is the hardness of ginger candy. If it is soft, boil it for a while.

6. Prepare a mold, spread a piece of oil-absorbing paper, pour in the cooked ginger juice, smooth it, cover it with oil-absorbing paper, flatten it, and cool it to room temperature.

7. After cooling, sprinkle a layer of cooked glutinous rice flour to prevent sticking, and cut into small pieces. If the knife sticks in the process of re-cutting, rinse it with clear water before cutting.

8. After all the pieces are cut, sprinkle a little cooked glutinous rice flour, shake it by hand, and let the ginger sugar be evenly wrapped with cooked glutinous rice flour. Our ginger sugar is ready.
