How to Make and Use Candied Ginger - The Healing Super-Food Candy

[@paulakelly9244]

I also spoon drops of the "syrup" that's left over from the cooking process into the sugar so it doesn't go to waste. It hardens enough to pick them up to eat. The drops aren't as "hot" as the ginger is so it makes a really nice, tasty treat.

[@lindapreston9117]

What a magnificent blessing to find someone exalting God and not just a sefie on KZbin. May His grace continue to be with you. Amen

[@JerryGDawg56]

You have quickly become my favorite KZbin personality. Your videos are so informative and enjoyable to watch and I especially love that you end with such uplifting spiritual scripture. GOD bless you!

[@tennesseegirl1215]

I so agree, your spiritual blessing in each video is so encouraging

[@ohioladybug7390]

I couldn’t have said it better!

[@GerardVaughan-qe7ml]

Same here. I particularly liked the tip about the pinch of Salt. Only one tip for her - hold the jar Much higher above the tray, to get an even, thinner, less lumpy, coating.

[@johnlord8337]

If you steam (aka pressure cooker and steam basket) the ginger (like tomatoes and apples), then allow to cool, you can finger slide off the ginger skin, without all the fussiness of scraping or shaving. Then with a mandolin, you can shave the thinnest slices that are then boiled, with less boilings, and dropping into the ginger candy syrup. Then put out a waxed cookie sheet, and sprinkle with crystal sugar and (sea) salt, toss on the slices, and again sprinkle with sugar and salt. Allow to cool and dry for a very great taste sensation.

[@peggyhiggins6923]

Thank you John! I'll try this in my Instant Pot😊

[@tikkidaddy]

Our 8qt nonstick pressure cooker is our most used kitchem tool, besides cast iron of course

[@barbossa1st]

I like your idea, because I love raw ginger and would want less boiling. Thanks !👍

[@kipviteo2274]

I always boiled ginger to throw the water into the bath. It takes away muscle soreness and is just wonderful.

[@Thewellshomestead]

Kip Viteo good to know! I had no idea!

[@kentaylor3087]

WOW

[@pinkrainclouds2190]

That doesnt burn... down there?

[@beautybycarlamaria5892]

LetItRain2019 this is what I was thinking too haha

[@jasonthomas1688]

Great tip

[@switchhazel3517]

Best candied ginger recipe I've seen. I used my left over ginger water to spice up my iced tea. Delicious!

[@J_Chap]

I made mine today. It is sitting on the table right now. Tomorrow I will give it a try. I couldn't find big pieces like you have. All they had at the health food store was small pieces. I just made it work. I prefer to buy organic. We bought a whole pound! Can't wait to try it!

[@J_Chap]

My son is getting ready to start chemo and I was searching the internet for ginger chews to buy for him, but, they are so expensive! Then I searched youtube for a way to make them myself and came across your video. I've missed you. You have been gone for awhile. I love your videos and I am going to make these for my son to have when the chemo makes him so sick. I appreciate you so much! Before coming across your video I read through several recipes and they use corn starch and I know my son would not like that. But, the sugar will taste good to him and hopefully the ginger will ease his stomach. God bless and thank you so much!

[@tikkidaddy]

I hope and pray your son has fully recovered and the cancer is gone. I have horrible digestive issues, severe nausea and ginger works better than ZOFRAN for me. I boil it once. I want it strong and pungent. I use hot peppers and kimchi to help as well.

[@theresahouck3516]

I slice the ginger, place it in a pan of water, boil it, on the stove, then use that water to add to my tea bag for my cup of tea. I can use the same ginger about 5-7 times. I do not use any sugar. Host Defense Turmeric Immune Tea. Love it!

[@gregswintek448]

You and Starry Hilder are an inspiration. I love when you read the bible verses to us. It's very special and you are a fine lady. Great recipe!

[@rosedocherty4093]

For diabetic people, you can use Palm sugar which does not effect your sugar levels.

[@PREPSTEADERS]

Thank you for sharing, Rose!

[@RonRay]

You have such an endearing voice. Thank you for reading the bible verses.

[@michelleseavello9980]

Agree!!

[@Sonshine1949]

For the diabetics out there (or folks who are watching calories) you can put the ginger into a dehydrator instead of into sugar. If you don't have a dehydrator simply put the ginger slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet and set it in your over (no heat) for a couple of days or put it on bakers' drying racks so there is air flowing all around it and leave it there for a couple of days. Not as much fun to eat as the sugar-coated variety but DEFINITELY worth the effort!!!!!

[@Recordesk]

Thank you a lot for the ginger in dehydrator idea. I appreciate you for the effort in sharing this

[@raybeaulieu6187]

I'm so happy I found your channel. You're videos are very professionally done and it makes them easy to watch. You're bible quotes at the end of each video is a really nice touch and I look forward to hearing each one. What better way to end a video about survival food than to be able to thank the Lord for these gifts. Finally, I must compliment you on your cleanliness and impeccable appearance. You are perfection.

[@puddgyballerina]

Save the ginger water, boil down with syrup and lemon to make a simple syrup and use in making baklava--i've sold several panels to friends and a local middle Eastern restaurant and they always want to know why mine is so wonderful!! This is my secret!!

[@harrisond8132]

I have been looking for how to do this and yours is by far the best! Thank you!

[@shirleyj5885]

Awesome, sugared Ginger is on of my favorites. Just yesterday I was wondering how to do this my self as I stood in front of my beautiful ginger plants. You are such a blessing to me more often then you'll know. Thanks for your words of encouragement at the end of your videos.

[@src3360]

I’m in Florida and grow ginger in pots on my deck. It’s actually a beautiful plant! I have dried ginger and candied ginger and give it to friends and co workers 🙏🏻🌈

[@stephc5983]

I just made myself a cup of wild sweet orange tea and added candies ginger to it. It was so good TFS ! Now I know how to make my own. Will be a great cost savings. Blessings.

[@CVenza]

Thank you for the recipe! God be with you.

[@davemello5038]

I'm A Type One And I Use Ginger Oil For My Neuropathy And My Wife Makes Me A Tea Of Ginger, Lemon And Honey For My Neuropathy . I'm Always Buying Expensive Candied Ginger To Treat The Neuropathy That Has Now Made It's Way Into My Stomach . So , Thanks Sister Swartz !

[@thecolbertaffect7008]

[@florule1124]

Oh how wonderful..have watched your video twice and am now in the process of cooking up my ginger ! Thank you ever so much ..was a great tutorial and i am so excited to get my own candied ginger made ! Thanks again ..good job !

[@gretchenarrant8334]

I have a jar full of peeled ginger ready to make candied ginger. I usually do at least once a year, sometimes more. Ginger has doubled in price at my store this year!! I always save all the liquid from the boils. I took some to a friend whose hubby has tummy troubles. I remember my mom using ground ginger in black coffee for that. Why not a bit if the "juice" from boiling it to see if it helps. It helped my daughter in law. I told my friend, and she's going to try to see if it helps. I had boiled the peels and stubby parts for her. I love candied ginger. I have somehow caught a nasty cold, so it will have to wait a bit, but it's already started so won't be that hard. Thanks for all of your wonderful help. I've planted the starts several times, but the squirrels have destroyed it!! Happy New Year, Christa!!❤🥰🥰

[@Thisthingcalledlifeis]

Ty for your info! Love ginger & it not only tastes but smells wonderful.🌱

[@rachelkivarkis1801]

What more do we need. I love the way u close ur session. Thank u so much, for this recipe. 🙏❤️🌟👍👏🤟

[@justincase1575]

I used erithritol to sweeten! Worked good and is diabetic friendly! I get sweet cravings also!

[@7777lori]

My daughter and I have ginger gum and ginger chews in case we have an upset stomach. Thank you for this video, and God bless you!

[@tamibarnette1557]

Lori Hancock recipe please

[@deanndubois7690]

Oh Thankyou for teaching me this recipe. I love candied ginger. But its usually pretty pricy. Now i channel make my own. And I do love that you always share bible scriptures.

[@victoriahanna1270]

Thank you so much. This is what I was waiting for.

[@kaykayrn1747]

I would love to see a Ginger series, especially how the ginger water could be used. I can think of a few things BUT would like to know a few more. Thanks for the video!🌺

[@theresahouck3516]

I use the Ginger water full strength for my tea

[@marthamaryministries3370]

I’m thinking I can use it to make tea. And I can also use the leftover simple syrup for my hot or iced tea as well 💖

[@MarysNest]

Hi Christa, I was so happy to see the notification on my home page that you had posted another video. This video is wonderful! I love ginger like this but I have bought it before not made it homemade. I am so happy to know how to do this now!! I will definitely try this. Also, I wanted to let you know that if you cook about a cup of honey slowly on low on the stove with a large piece of grated ginger - maybe about 30 minutes or so - it makes something that it almost like a ginger marmalade!! Thanks again for sharing all your wisdom!! Love, Mary ❤️😘❤️

[@PREPSTEADERS]

Thank you so much, Mary! You are such an encourager! I am sure that is absolutely delicious! Thank you for sharing. :)

[@MarysNest]

PREPSTEADERS - Thank you!! ❤️😘❤️

[@Anione111]

Mary's Nest, could you share the proportion of the honey marmalade you made?

[@glenicebellamy3048]

You are a beautiful, gracious, charming woman and I love your videos. I also love candied ginger and plan to try this recipe. Thank you for who you are and for all you do, a radiant light in a dark world!

[@jeanellstarr4949]

love your inspirational words of wisdom and comfort.

[@drege8510]

True I have ginger growing in the garden just this way 🙂

[@Kris-jy7dz]

I always keep a little container of candied ginger in my purse for tummy trouble. I often get acid stomach and ginger works almost immediately.

[@deelac1]

I use it in my Teriyaki sauce. Flavors the sauce nicely with ginger and the pieces are alway enjoyed by my family.

[@salomecordier5186]

Thanks for the recipe. Going to try it. Planted my own ginger and almost ready to harvest. Nice and fresh shoots. I also coat some of the candied ginger with home made chocolate -recipe from Petra Scott Nutritian refined blog.

[@knogues]

I'm so excited knowing how to make candied ginger now! I used to buy it when I had a sore throat and/or a cough. I'd stick a piece in my cheek and let the ginger calm it down. Thank you so much!

[@da4847]

Oh my goodness, the ending is the BEST PART! Thank you so much for speaking the Word of God to us and His promise! :D

[@Nah481]

Looks so delicious!!

[@thesuburbanhomesteader7636]

Thank you so much for this great video tutorial! You are such a sweet soul, I love listening to you talk. I made this delicious candied ginger, and made ice cubes out of the ginger water that I'll add to iced tea, or hot tea.

[@jerryguerra348]

A sweet video that ends with a sweet and savory word from God. What a sweet blessing?

[@sandracampbell4253]

Thank you for this video . We love ginger . I look forward to learn how to grow it year round.

Thank you Sweetie!! May you and yours be blessed! Thank you for being a blessing to many........🙏

[@annmarie2964]

I was recently wondering how to make these and then you came out with this video --- thanks!

[@OldSchool1947]

Hey, I have that very same fruitcake tin! Loved your ginger method! I've had candied ginger coated in dark chocolate. Really yummy!

[@SHADOW-xw6lq]

First wanted to say how much I enjoy all your videos. I have changed up the candied ginger. 1/2 cup ginger water, 1/2 raw sugar, 1 cup raw honey. After the ginger is nestled into its sugar bed I take the ginger sugar water and put in orange peels. Cook them just like the ginger and put to rest in sugar over night. Yummy. My kitchen smells great!

[@booper343]

Beautiful verse and beautiful lady ♡♡♡

[@janbriseno5895]

Thank you for sharing!!! Can you please di the next video on how to plant ginger!!!

[@PREPSTEADERS]

Jan, the next 2 videos are on Scripture memory and How to make your own Silica Gel Packets but I will try to get that one on the schedule. Thank you for the suggestion!

[@terrim.602]

I absolutely love your channel! I love your knowledge, ingenuity, and faith. I was watching one of your foraging video's and my husband listened while he was busy. At the end of the video, he commented at how much he likes your video style. I love the message of God's love for us at the end of your videos. Thank you!! I really love your foraging videos. Learning foraging gives us power over our lives. Please do a compass video 💕🇺🇸

Fancy meeting you here Tessie. :-)

[@judypsa1336]

Diabetics, I make this with eryrithritol bc I do keto. Works great!

[@HelpBeyondChurch1]

I always wondered how they did that. I have a lot of ginger growing in a bucket from the nobbies of old ginger roots. It takes a long time for them to get large. I’ve been thinking of harvesting my ginger now that it’s getting cold. And now I have a good reason! Thank you so much! God Bless!

[@scottsutton7989]

WOW your truly one incredible woman. Yahova keep you and bless you.

[@daisy8284]

Candied ginger was my best friend while I was pregnant! Ginger alleviates nausea fast. When I was hit with morning sickness, which was frequently, I would just eat a piece of candied ginger and felt so much better within just a few minutes. If any of you have morning sickness or just general nausea, try it! I’ve heard it’s even great for motion sickness from car or airplane.

[@PREPSTEADERS]

Excellent!! Thank you for sharing that with us, Daisy! Ginger really is amazing!

[@hanorabrennan8846]

Used to sail in my younger days and always had ginger for motion sickness!

[@littleme3597]

Daisy; Ginger is better, just something sweet like honey or sugar, helps with nausea too. So Ginger w/sugar is best.

[@kberken]

This is great to know. Thanks!

[@cellinimedusa4679]

I have had a worrying stomach ache for a week. This is a wonderful recipe and l’m looking forward to reaping the rewards of making this simple and delicious recipe (my husband is a diabetic, so it’s a win win) thank you 😊

Dear you have many useful recepies I like very very much thanks a lot

I bought some ginger candy for my cruise in case.i got motion sickness. Well I didn’t, but sometimes I feel queasy and a small nibble of ginger candy always takes care of it!

[@julibeswick-valentine3690]

,Thank you so much for sharing your method with us. I have tried it in the past using a very complicated and lengthy way that was, alas, unsuccessful. I'm going to the store tomorrow and definitely going to pick up some ginger and try your way as I'd love to have a supply for the Christmas period.

[@jennymullins593]

Hi Christa, Non-GMO Xylitol may be a good sugar option for those of us who are diabetics. On a show called Go Healthy For Good, Dr Nerida McKibben mentioned that Xylitol not only as a very low GI of about 7 as opposed to sugar's GI of 100, but it has the effect of helping your body deal with blood glucose levels more efficiently. I have Type 2 diabetes & now use it in my coffee. I don't like Stevia's aftertaste, but Xylitol looks & tastes like white sugar! You may need to use a touch more, as it's ever so slightly less sweet. Xylitol is made from Beech trees or Corn (non GMO). Unfortunately about 4 times more expensive, but it's worth the expense for diabetics. Thank you for being conscientious enough to include your thought towards diabetics. You really are a treasure!

[@jumpoffa5011]

I have been growing ginger for fives now and I never have thought of making candied ginger. I was just pleased to grow it. I will definitely will make some candied ginger. If you get a chance I would like for you to look for Homestead Tessie. She watched your channel and made a comment. If you would, have a look at her channel. You both have a lot in common and I thought that I would bring it to your attention. You both bring so much to your channels for the rest of us that I though that you should know. Often a diamond in the rough goes un-noticed until it is pointed out by someone else. :-)

[@lindachandler2293]

Anything candied, ginger, citrus, etc. Is great in hot tea.

What did you do with the simple syrup after removing the ginger? How long will the ginger water last on the shelf?

[@PerAllwin1963]

My grandma used to boil raw ginger in Coca Cola as a remedy against colds and the flu with fever. She wrapped a blanket on me and had me drink the concoction. It was a very spicy drink that made me perspire. I fell asleep and when I woke up the fever had broke and I felt better.

I love candied ginger. I buy it in 5 lb bags. I should make my own. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

[@bobhale8325]

I learned to love candied ginger when my father was stationed on Taiwan in 1958. I still love it. My wife and I would buy it to settle our stomachs when going out whale watching out of a port north of Los Angeles. I never get sea sick, but it was a good excuse for some candied ginger.

[@amberk2124]

I'll need to try this. Thank You...and Amen

[@dr.froghopper6711]

I followed your recipe and the results were outstanding! I took the water that you cooked the sugar in and stirred it back into the boiled ginger water. Then I reserved it to mix 2-3:1 sparkling water:ginger water. The candied ginger was amazing and the drink (I prefer 2:1) is delicious and mildly sweet. I read that honey and cinnamon can help with the glycemic index.

[@PREPSTEADERS]

Oh yes! I am so glad, Michael! I am making up another big batch to give as Christmas gifts this year. I am so glad yours turned out so well!

[@dr.froghopper6711]
