Ginger candies

I do not know if you know this product. I called it ginger candy But, to give you an idea, it is like frosted ginger. It is sold in herbalists and in large stores and it is not cheap. I tried it last Christmas ... I like it but I admit that the strong flavor of ginger makes it not suitable for all palates.

After discovering how easy it is to make it at home, I will not buy it again. We start with raw ginger, from the root. To make the candies we just have to peel it, chop it, cook it, sweeten it and let it dry. Easy right?

Ah! And don't waste the broth from the first cooking. We are going to freeze it and to use it in other preparations.
