EASY GINGER CANDY RECIPE + VIDEO
Steps:
- Peel the ginger root and slice into 1/8 inch rounds.
- Place the ginger slices in a large 6 quart sauce pot. Add the water. Bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes to soften the ginger.
- Remove the lid and check the liquid levels. There should be approximately 1/4 - 1/3 cup of water in the bottom of the pot. If needed, scoop out some water with a ladle, or add water, to make sure you have about ¼ cup in the pot.
- Stir in the sugar and salt. Bring the sugar syrup to a simmer. Simmer, stirring regularly, for 15-20 minutes, until the syrup starts to crystalize. The color will range from pale cream to golden. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Set out a baking rack. Spray with nonstick cooking spray. Use tongs to move the ginger pieces to the rack, spreading out in a single layer.
- Allow the ginger to rest for 2-4 hours, until all the pieces are dry.
- Place in an airtight container. The ginger candy will last for at least 1 month if kept in a cool dry place.

HOMEMADE PICKLED GINGER (GARI)
Pickled ginger is called gari or amazu shoga in Japanese. It's served with sushi or sashimi and eaten between different kinds of sushi. It helps to clean your taste buds and enhance the flavors. It's also great with Century Eggs - a Chinese delicacy. You can find prepared pickled ginger in pink or white at most Asian markets but I preferred to make my own and share with family and friends.

Steps:
- Cut the ginger into chunks and place them into a bowl. Sprinkle with sea salt, stir to coat and let stand for about 30 minutes. Transfer the ginger to a clean jar.
- In a saucepan, stir together the rice vinegar and sugar until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, then pour the boiling liquid over the ginger root pieces in the jar.
- Allow the mixture to cool, then put the lid on the jar and store in the refrigerator for at least one week. You will see that the liquid will change to slightly pinkish in few minutes. Don't be alarmed because it's the reaction of rice vinegar that causes the change. Only quality rice vinegar can do that! Some commercial pickled ginger has red coloring added. Cut pieces of ginger into paper thin slices for serving.

Steps:
- Peel fresh ginger and cut into thin coins (1/8 inch thick). Add the sliced ginger to a medium saucepan along with 3 cups of water.
- Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once it comes to a rolling boil, reduce the heat to low and cook the ginger for 2 minutes.
- Remove the pan from heat, strain the ginger and discard the water. Cook the ginger coins in water similarly 2 more times. This process removes the bitterness from ginger and makes the fibrous cell wall soft. Drain and set aside.
- Heat water and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for 5-6 minutes.
- Add the ginger to the pan and cook for 20-30 minutes on low heat till it turns translucent. Do not stir during this process otherwise there will be crystallization.
- Strain the syrup using a strainer and store it for future use (iced tea or any other drink).
- Let the crystallized ginger cool for 2 minutes.
- Toss it in castor sugar until all the pieces are coated.
- Arrange the pieces on a wire rack in a single layer and let them dry for 6-8 hours. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks at room temperature or 2 months in the refrigerator.

HOMEMADE GINGER ALE AND ITS CANDY
Steps:
- Mix ginger, sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a slow simmer. Reduce mixture by 50 percent until a syrupy consistency is reached. Keep in mind that the syrup will thicken as it cools. Strain warm syrup. Allow to cool.
- While syrup is cooling, make ginger candy. Take ginger slices that have been drained out of the syrup and completely coat in sugar. Spread on sheet pan and slowly dry out in a 225-degree oven for 3 hours. Ginger slices should be dried but still chewy.
- In a tall glass of ice, add mint sprig and a ratio of 1 part ginger syrup to 7 parts soda water. Squeeze lime wedge and add to drink. Use more syrup if desired. Stir and enjoy. Can also make drink with chilled soda water and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a tasty Ginger Ale Float.
LEMON GINGER MOUSSE AND HOMEMADE FORTUNE COOKIE

Steps:
- For the mousse:
- Place the heavy cream, fresh ginger and ground ginger in a medium saucepan and bring to just under a boil. Turn off the heat and let the cream sit for about an hour. Remove from the heat and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator overnight or up to 4 days.
- For the fortune cookie:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar and egg whites until combined. Whisk in the melted butter, then the flour and then the ginger (or extract or spice of your choice). Place the batter in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. (The batter will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week in an airtight container.).
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a very flat, level baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper, and liberally spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Spoon about a tablespoon of batter onto the baking sheet and, using the back of the spoon or an offset spatula, carefully spread the batter into a circle 6 to 7 inches in diameter. Your first few times you should probably stick to making these one at a time but once you get the hang of it, try making 2 to 3 at a time. Bake until the tuile is completely golden brown all over, 12 to 14 minutes.
- As soon as the tuile is done, remove it from the oven and immediately start to slide a spatula underneath the tuile to loosen it from the sheet. The tuile will go through several stages before it gets to its final cooled and crispy state. Directly out of the oven it is too hot and delicate to handle. After about 10 seconds it firms up enough to hold its shape so you can handle it and shape it. It stays pliable for 10 to 15 more seconds; this is your window of opportunity to work with the cookie. Once you've worked the spatula under the whole cookie, pick it up and shape into a fortune cookie. If you wait too long the cookie starts to harden and cool and then your attempt to shape it will result in a shattered mess. You can place the cookie back into the oven for a few seconds to re-warm it into a pliable state. However, with each reheating, the cookie cools down even faster so I recommend only 2 re-heatings. Use a new cool baking sheet for each batch or cool your baking sheet under cool water before reusing. If you try to spoon the batter onto a hot sheet it will immediately start to melt and become un-spreadable. Continue with all of the batter until you have 8 to 10 cookies. Let cool for 30 minutes. Cookies hold for about a day in an airtight container.
- To assemble:
- When you are ready to serve the mousse, strain the ginger-flavored heavy cream into a large mixing bowl. Whip the cream until it holds a peak. Fold in the Lemon Curd. Divide into serving bowls and top with candied ginger and a fortune cookie.
- Lemon Curd:.
- In a medium, nonreactive saucepan, combine the lemon juice and butter, place over medium-high heat and heat to just under a boil. In a medium, heatproof bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolks until blended, then slowly whisk in the sugar until combined. Remove the lemon juice mixture from the heat and gradually whisk a little of it into the sugar/egg mixture. Continue whisking the hot liquid into the sugar/egg mixture, a little at a time, until all of it has been incorporated. When all of the hot liquid has been incorporated, return the contents of the bowl to the saucepan and return the saucepan to medium heat. Cook, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon and making sure to scrape the bottom of the pan frequently to prevent the eggs from scrambling, for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and coats the spoon thickly. To test, draw your finger along the back of the spoon; the curd should hold the trail for a second or two before it fills. Remove the curd from the heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Whisk in the vanilla and salt. You should have about 3 cups. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until cold. (The curd can be made up to 5 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.).

CANDIED GINGER
Steps:
- Spray a cooling rack with nonstick spray and set it in a half sheet pan lined with parchment.
- Peel the ginger root and slice into 1/8-inch thick slices using a mandoline. Place into a 4-quart saucepan with the water and set over medium-high heat. Cover and cook for 35 minutes or until the ginger is tender.
- Transfer the ginger to a colander to drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Weigh the ginger and measure out an equal amount of sugar. Return the ginger and 1/4 cup water to the pan and add the sugar. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar syrup looks dry, has almost evaporated and begins to recrystallize, approximately 20 minutes. Transfer the ginger immediately to the cooling rack and spread to separate the individual pieces. Once completely cool, store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Save the sugar that drops beneath the cooling rack and use to top ginger snaps, sprinkled over ice cream or to sweeten coffee.
CRYSTALLIZED CANDY GINGER
Crystallized ginger is the secret ingredient to my favourite pound cake. It was available briefly and then disappeared off the shelves. I have made this version a few times and find it excellent. I do not include the 8-10 hour drying time in the prep.

- . COOK the Ginger slices very slowly: In a medium-small pot, bring the water, sugar and lemon juice to a boil until the sugar is dissolved. Give it a quick stir. Add the ginger and return to a boil before lowering the heat to a simmer setting (between Low and Medium). KEEP COVERED WITHOUT WORRY OF OVER-BOILING. This process will take 90 minutes. Afterwards, take off the lid and continue cooking for another 15 minutes. (When thoroughly cooked, it will be tender and almost translucent.) . At this point, take pot off the burner and cool for about 30 minutes.
- . STRAIN ginger from the syrup: With a small mesh strainer over a jar...pour out the syrup. Place and spread the remaining ginger on a metal mesh screen with a bottom plate to catch minimal drips but mostly for aeration.
- . AIR-DRY the ginger for about 20-24 hours. Most of the tackiness needs to be gone before you proceed with the sugar coating.
