Urban Platter Dried Ginger Candy, 250g
Ginger candy with no preservatives is ideal for a spicy snack, cooking or baking, or a unique cup of tea. It is simply ginger root that has been dried and preserved with a sugar coating.
Crystallized ginger is pungent with a spicy-sweet flavor and is moist and chewy. It is embraced as a natural remedy for reducing hot flashes – huge numbers of women swear by it. It helps alleviate indigestion and colds…and don’t forget to take it with you on boat trips for seasickness! (Some of us here know from experience that it’s an essential part of your travel kit…)
Interestingly, ginger itself is as old as the recorded history of man. A native to southern Asia and India, it is spoken of in the Jewish Talmud, written about by Marco Polo, and even recommended by Henry VIII as a remedy against the plague.
Featuring ginger’s famous potent spiciness with a touch of sweetness, each delicious, chewy bite of Piping Rock’s Crystallized Ginger packs a flavorful punch that’ll have you reaching for more!
Ginger is not a root, but it is rather a rhizome of the plant Zingiber officinale, meaning it is the thick, fleshy sub-stem of the plant from which the roots grow. It has long been a staple of traditional Asian culture, used in an array of cuisines, wellness practices and made into the popular ginger tea.
After the sugar disappears and you think you‘ll get hit by the strong flavour of Ginger you‘ll be disappointed. The quality is excellent but the Ginger flavour isn‘t strong.
