Soft Ginger Chews Recipe

[@barbaracoleman6641]

I feel you, honey. I am a nurse and have had arthritis for a while too. I just discovered ginger chews in a local supermarket in their ethnic aisle. I wondered why my sister was so insistent that I try them. She is into herbology and loves Asian foods. I can't wait to try this recipe! Especially since it is winter.

[@gardengalsu]

*Thank you for creating and sharing this recipe!* I have a cousin who is very generous & I wanted to thank him, but didn't know how. He enjoys (sea) fishing, but suffers from sea sickness. Since ginger helps fight that, *your candy is the perfect solution!*

[@cathyaquilina5310]

Sorry to hear about your arthritis, but your positive attitude is wonderful to see. This candy looks very good and doesn’t seem too hard to make either, your directions are always so clear, look forward to your videos!

[@croana]

Heya I made these yesterday and they're really yummy! I saw that some people were asking if they could be coated in something other than coconut. I tried coating them in powered sugar at first, but that was a mistake. The sugar pulled moisture out of the candies after about an hour and just made them wet. I re-coated them in tapioca starch on top of the powdered sugar, and that seems to have worked much better. Next time I'll just coat them in tapioca starch from the start!

[@dwilliams4558]

tapioca starch alone?

[@pinkmonkeybird2644]

These would be awesome for any pregnant ladies out there who are suffering from moderate to severe nausea. Ginger tea and ginger chews were recommended to me by my ob-gyn during my pregnancy, as I struggled with nausea and vomiting. It really worked for me; I felt the same heat you described. A very tasty type of medicine indeed. Thank you very much for all of your recipes and detailed videos. You are an excellent teacher and your obvious knowledge and enthusiasm comes across in every single video. I’ve enjoyed them all and learned so much about Chinese cuisine. Best wishes to you.

[@patrickwilliam8060]

Hi Mandy, thank you for sharing the recipe and a bit about your story. Best of luck with your move, the channel and your health.

[@DefectiveDictionary777]

I just found this video, bought my first steamer to try this out, and they turned out amazing! Since I'm trying to make these to replace the more sugary ginger candies I have been eating for my nausea lately, I made a second batch with a small modification. I just added 2 tbsp (6 grams) of powdered ginger to the batter before steaming it so I could turn up the heat and cut the pieces smaller to reduce sugar per piece. Ended up with a nice kick of ginger heat and a little over 60 pieces in total. That brought the sugar down to around 2.5 grams per piece - just under 30% less sugar than the candies I got from the store!

[@robertdennis5394]

I have Osteoarthritis in both knees, I have tried just about every cream, prescription medications out there, and I really like the more natural medicines and definitely well be trying this.. thank you for sharing your story and your recipes. I've tried quite a few of them now and I never been let down yet, nor my dinner guest. Keep up the great channel and videos. Thank you once again from Newfoundland, Canada

[@kellyw.1779]

Hey Mandy! I know exactly how you feel with having arthritis at a younger age. Along with the arthritis, I also have CRPS in both legs/feet. The CRPS causes chronic pain 24/7 - 365 and daily living isn't easy! I love the idea of the ginger warming you from the inside...I can't wait to give this candy a try. It looks so good covered with the coconut! Yummy ; ) Have a great day...Hugs from Texas!! xxxx

[@jinahoh7460]

made this today! so tasty. did a cheat method and microwaved it for 2 min with cling wrap that i poked holes in. worked great!

[@wyattalexander4041]

Your whole channel is actually amazing and your a very sweet person thank you for helping me make these ginger helps my stomach problems it’s nice to have a candy

[@php213]

I've made variants of this recipe several times now and it's always tasty! Reminds me a little of making nian gao. I'd like to share some tips I discovered while making these delicious snacks: One simplification that I think worked well was directly mixing all the ingredients together and not bothering with boiling the sugar. (I tried it both ways and the results seem the same to me). This sugar-boiling step reminds me of nian gao recipes, where you're dealing with slabs of rock sugar, so it's more necessary, I think. Another thing that helped with remembering and modifying the recipe was using equal parts sugar, glutinous rice flour, and liquid (e.g. 150 grams of each). This can be helpful if you want to scale the recipe, replace the flavorings, or get less/more ginger juice than expected. The recipe says you should get 1/2 cup of ginger juice. 1/2 cup of water is about 118 grams. (I imagine ginger juice isn't much heavier, though I forgot my measurements for that). If you add that to the 30 grams water you dissolve the sugar in, that's almost 150 grams liquid. So you can just remember the 1:1:1 ratio for sugar, glutinous rice flour, and liquid. This ratio also works for other liquids, like coconut milk (though you might want to slightly up the milk to get a chewier/softer texture). I find that the coconut version is even prettier when finished and dusted, the white-on-white giving a snowy wintery look. Another note: this snack (and most rice/glutinous-rice-based-foods) gets much less chewy after a few days, and this process speeds up significantly in the fridge. Personally, I usually don't refrigerate (even before cutting it up) before a few days to a week, to preserve the texture (though your risk-tolerance of spoilage may vary). If it does get hard, it's not the end of the world; just pop a few in the microwave for a few seconds before eating (use

[@traceyannjohnson5627]

I truly love how detailed your videos are made. This is a recipe that I am definitely trying.....as we Jamaicans LOVE our ginger😀😊.

[@lynnco9791]

Thank you so much for the recipe. I have been buying the commercial version of this product. I am so glad to know that I can now make it on my own!

[@lisahinton9682]

I hope you are doing well these days, Mandy. I saw this video years ago when you first posted it and I came back to it tonight because I am making these tomorrow for a friend from work. Thanks for the detailed recipe. I love ginger so much and these are delicious. Can't wait to have them again. Take good care, Mandy.

[@NikNordin]

Hey Mandy. I am sorry to hear about your arthritis pain. Hope you feel better. I myself was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) since the early teens. I try to incorporate turmeric into my diet every day. I didn't even think about "heat" from food like ginger that will also help with pain. I will definitely give this recipe a try. Thank you!

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

hope this will help you and let me know how it goes when you try

[@luvsunshine4825]

You should give fresh ginger tea a try! I bet it would help a lot.

[@davidmaisel8062]

So sorry about your arthritis! I live in northern Brazil and grow my own ginger. It's an amazing ingredient as well as medicine. I'm going to try to make rice flour and give this recipe a go. Hope your feeling well

[@GladysRWhite]

David + In the recipe it is glutinous rice flour, not normal rice flour. You can get it in oriental stores. In the East they use this glutinous rice flour to make desserts.

[@jot4880]

Instead of coconut, I pan fry some glutinous rice flour for about 15 minutes or until the flour started to smell slightly nutty and look toasted. Medium to low heat, do not burn the flour. And you can use the cooked flour to coat the chews. We used this cooked flour to coat snow skin moon cakes.

[@lisahinton9682]

@Jo T I love that you dry-fry the glutinous rice flour to cook it first, so that it tastes good, as well as doing its job of keeping things from sticking to each other.

[@jgsmerda]

That's the best recipe demo for ginger chews I have ever seen. Awesome! Thank you!

[@jasonsteele6920]

This recipe is perfect for my knee pains *and* my frequent nausea! Thanks so much, Mandy!

[@beverlyoliverrocks]

I also suffer from chronic RA, so I have made this recipe along with you today :) It's in steamer right now...Thanks Mandy!

[@reannellenos-moradas6598]

Does it taste good?

[@beverlyoliverrocks]

@@reannellenos-moradas6598 Yes..I love it :)

[@SuZiKaT22]

Hi Mandy. These look great! I'm going to make some for my mom, who loves ginger and coconut. I am sorry to hear about your joint pain. I use golden paste, which is a mixture of turmeric, coconut oil and fresh black pepper. There are a few groups on Facebook if you would like to investigate. It's pretty easy to make and the basic recipe is all over Google as well. I also take a supplement I buy from Amazon called Wobenzym. Between that and cutting out wheat, refined sugar and dairy, I very seldom have issues with my back or neck anymore. If I do get a headache or something like that, I use essential oils like lavender and peppermint. I've so enjoyed the recipes on your channel, thank you for sharing with us. I wish you good health. ❤

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

Thank you. I am glad that you like this recipe. Now I am taking some medication to help me with the pain. I should be ok. Thank you for caring.

[@shannonrobinson262]

I also have mild RA. I love ginger. I’ll try this as soon as I get to the Asian market across town to get ginger. I haven’t tried growing my own...yet😉. Thanks

[@intheocean007]

Hey Mandy. I gave up wheat and gluten and took fish oil (6 grams a day) and it helped my arthritis very much! I find when I have something again with wheat or gluten, the pains come back very quickly! Hope this helps 👍

Thank you for posting this recipe. I know what you mean about arthritis. I too use ginger for it. Once in a while I like a sweet version. I don’t normally eat too much sugar since it causes inflammation that can actually make arthritis worse but on occasion this is a nice treat. 😀

[@maeannalowery1174]

I just learned about Ginger candy as a remedy for sore throat and post nasal drip I had from Covid. I bought them from the store and they are delicious but very expensive and I can eat a lot of them so I am looking for a recipe to make myself. That looks good to try!

That ginger candy snack looks nice and must help some who suffer from pain in their limbs. I have been fortunate there, but do suffer from lower back pain which I am taking medications for.

Looks like they would make a good after dinner treat as an aid to digestion

Ginger is good for digestion? It's good to know, i thought it was opposite, thanks

[@mastergardener2000]

I noticed comment below about turmeric in which I was going to suggest to you also. But I am thinking of adding it to this recipe additional with the ginger. Do you research on turmeric they also say the addition of black pepper enhances the healing power of turmeric. Healings sent for your arthritis 💟

Hi dear... Thanks for another amazing recipe...

Thank you!! I was going to try this today, but I am on blood thinners so I'll have to give it a miss. I love ginger. put it in everything and buy it by the kilo.

[@brianvictor68]

Souped Up Recipes Hey Thai Angel wings are chicken wings stuffed with glass noodles, fungus and other things, when done right they can be really good. But there's a Chinese version that are amazing but they're not stuffed with glass noodles. They're a little smaller and stuffed with finely diced prawns, fatty pork, garlic, minced challots and maybe a couple of other things, they're so juicy they squirt sometimes when you bite into them and are extremely hard to find anywhere. Can you see if you can try a version. They can be amazing. They're not batter dipped they're breaded and fried and go really well with a sweet chilli sauce or even a sweet Vietnamese dipping sauce. A chinese family made them in their restaurant when I was growing up in New Jersey. The Hong Kong Kitchen. Thank You.

[@colettenewton6780]

Spoke with my pharmacist yesterday. He assured me that ginger will have no effect on my blood pressure, which is low, or my blood's ability to clot.

[@jsmooth6311]

Colette Newton I'm guessing you're living with high blood pressure... I'm not a doctor or an expert, but I been dealing with high blood pressure for a few years now... And if you are dealing with with high BP, I have some great news to share with you and how I'm currently dealing with high blood pressure... I now successfully maintain my blood pressure from a stage 2 hypertension range reading of 160/110 back to a normal range without ever taking any medication... It took me precisely 2 and half months to bring my blood pressure back to normal readings of 120/80 or lower... Never had to visit a doctor and take medication... And that's from eating a natural healthy diet high in Potassium, Magnesium, and Calcium... Mainly from fruits n vegetables... I also used to consume raw grated garlic in coconut water, freshed squeezed lemon juice, honey, tumeric spice n cinnamon everyday for 2 and half months consistently... Also before bed, I used to boil grated ginger in caffiene free green tea with ginseng... But now, I currently just chew n swallow pieces of raw ginger before bed... And take multi-vitamin supplements with Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, and vitamin D (in a single pill) on an everyday basis... And that's just to ensure I'm getting enough of these minerals... But raw ginger and garlic are two great natural blood thinners (to prevent blood clots) and packed with antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties... A healthy diet is the key to success... And of course a low sodium diet as well... Potassium, Magnesium, and Calcium are the 3 main minerals to maintain blood pressure... Just a little research paid off big for my success...☺

I made this yesterday, it’s just like Mochi! The only problem is the ginger isn’t present enough. It’s like 3/10 ginger strength. How can I get more ginger flavour and heat? I even added a tsp of powdered ginger. The next time instead of adding water (30g) to the brown sugar, I will add ginger juice . And also I will add 5 tbsp of ginger powder. I think I would also substitute some of the ginger liquid with turmeric juice. 🥰 Thanks for the recipe, loved that it was all in grams.

Love your video! Its simple and straight forward. I too have arthritis sometimes. How should the ginger chews be stored once coated? At room temperature or? Not that they will last that long. Their so yummy! I added a tsp of cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon slippery elm very yummy better than gummy bears 💜

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

room temperature for a few days or fridge for 3 weeks

[@lisahinton9682]

@Luvia Arcoiris Please check into how slippery elm is harvested. The plant will soon be extinct. It's unethical to use slippery elm. Please stop.

[@willoberle8875]

Amazing recipe. For a gluten free substitute, tapioca works well (although maybe not as creamy). Was wondering the best way to make it shelf stable though… I’ve had to avoid mold by putting it in the fridge

[@php213]

Despite the name, there is no gluten in glutinous rice flour. "Glutinous" just describes its sticky nature (which is why it's also called sticky rice). It gives a great chewy texture to the candy, almost like a gummy. Personally, I like to keep the candy at room temperature as long as I can (usually about a week) before putting it in the fridge, since just like day-old rice, glutinous-rice-flour-snacks turn hard in the fridge. Microwaving helps a bit, but doesn't completely fix the problem.

I am sorry to hear of your condition. Your conditions certainly do not stop or slowdown your prolific productions of wonderful recipes. I always have an interest in traditional chinese medicine and had a certificate in acupuncture from sri lanka. Arthritic conditions are mostly due to inflammation and tumeric is an excellent remedy but it has to be specially prepared before your body could absorbed it. What the ayurvedic medicine recommends is to melt sufficient ghee and when it reaches the smoking point, turn off the heat and mix in the tumeric powder. Leave if for half hour and after that you can consume it. You can put 1 g (tumeric powder before cooking in ghee) in your coffee, cocoa etc. Take 2 to 3 g a day. As tumeric is warming you should consume it with milk. In traditional chinese medicine there are a number of formula that you can use. If you are affected by climatic changes then Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang (獨活寄生湯) is recommended. To confirm that this formula is suitable you can look through the indications below. If you have many of these indications then the above formula should help. Hope you find this helpful. Indications : Painful joints Heavy and painful sensations at fixed locations in lower back and extremities with weakness and stiffness or hypertonicity and immobility Aversion to Cold Attraction to warmth Palpitations Pain in the midline and back during pregnancy Pain worse at night General coldness Sallow complexion Wandering pain Pale complexion Shortness of breath May be paresthesia and numbness Cold pain in the low back and knees Limited movement Soreness, weakness and numbness of the joints Tinnitus Muscle spasms Dizziness
