crystallized ginger....stop buying and start making!

It's no secret that I have a sweet tooth...and I LOVE crystallized ginger. The problem is that this sweet treat is quite expensive is often made with sulfur dioxide to help fix the color. I tried making some and it's pretty darn good. So easy to make! 


Disclaimer: It's hard to make this stuff look pretty, so just don't look that closely!





Recipe HERE from David Lebovitz


The only thing I did differently was let the ginger dry on the rack overnight, with the kitchen fan going (it's HOT this summer...) so let it dry as long as you wish, and I'd store it in the fridge, just to be safe.
