Ginger Syrup

By es123

Ingredients

• 2 cups sugar
• 2 cups fresh ginger, cut into 1/8-inch slices (about 2 large hands)
• 2 cups water

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine sugar, ginger and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until syrupy and reduced by half. Syrup should hold a line of a plate. Strain ginger pieces out and reserve syrup.

(Trick: toss dried ginger in sugar, bake at 200 degrees until dried thru, about 4 hours and voila-ginger candy)
