Ginger Three Ways

I found some nice root ginger in the supermarket last time I went to town. After a fairly lengthy process, I now have ginger preserved three ways - crystallised, in syrup and pickled. That should keep us gingered for a while.

  1. Oh that looks so tempting !
    In Hindi we have an idiom "bandar kya jaane adrak ka swaad" ( A monkey doesn't know/appreciate the taste of ginger ! ) It is a sarcastic way of saying what do you know; or you don't know enough to appreciate !
    I Love ginger, in all it's forms - fresh to pickled to dried ..... adds so much flavour to dishes, as well as to my morning cuppa .

    1. I gather pickled ginger is associated with sushi, but I thought I might try it in salads or something.

  4. I guess I am not a monkey, then. :-) I love ginger in any form. Never tried pickling or preserving it myself, though. It looks wonderful.

  7. I love ginger also - but pickled is new. I bet it would be good in salads or maybe with a slow-roasted meat?
