Ginger - Crystalized/Candied

Ginger is one of the oldest oriental spices and believed to have originated between northern India and eastern Asia. This knobby, fibrous root has smooth light brown skin and white flesh. The flavor is pungent, tangy, sweet, spicy and warm, with a lemon-like freshness. Ginger is a versatile spice used for savory Asian dishes and Indian curries, as well as a wide variety of baking recipes. Our crystallized or candied version is cured in a sugar coating and used as a breath-freshener, a light and natural snack, or to calm nausea.
