[mndmax]

How long it tooked you to boil it in the water in this special pot?

@mndmax

Hi

When I use pressure cooker, I hear about 5 whistles, depend how is my ginger, if I am able to find young ginger, I hear about 3 whistles only...5 whistles mean about 8min

[4mAALIKcHIN4]

is ground ginger ok?

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@4mAALIKcHIN4

Hi

No.

[iamearthbornami]

can you get same results with organic cane sugar

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@iamearthbornami

I haven't tried with organic sugar yet.

[CreamyButta]

i have watched all the videos on youtube on how to make this and so far yours is the best and easiest to follow. except for the pressure cooker i hate cooking with one. ..

i am still a little intimidated to cook this but i will try it one of these days ..

thanks for posting and be blessed.

@CreamyButta

Hi

If you don't want to use pressure cooker, cook in the open pot till ginger is very tender soft. Then only add to thick sugar syrup.

[fistoffries]

Good video. I like the way that she edits it, it reminds me of SXEphil.

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@fistoffries

HI

Enjoy!

[jafferafatimi]

I fear i did not follow properly but whatever it was bad to have :$.

I boiled ginger slices in water just to cover the the veggie. As soon as water dried up, i placed the ginger slices in sugar mixture .

The result was disgusting. No one could tell that as a candy .. that was like raw ginger

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@jafferafatimi

HI

You have to boil ginger till it is soft, tender. Sugar syrup must be crystle enough to make candid ginger.

[jafferafatimi]

@SuperVeggieDelight K thnx bahvna . til try again

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@jafferafatimi

The best thing is to use pressure cooker to boil your ginger fisrt. It takes only 5 mintues in pressure cooker to make your ginger tender/soft. I can make this candy ginger in about 15 minutes only....by the time ginger gets boiled, I prepare thick sugar syrup and then soak all my boiled ginger in sugar syrup and then roll them into again granulated sugar to give kind of candy texutre...

[jafferafatimi]

@SuperVeggieDelight ok thnx .

hope will give it a try again : )

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@jafferafatimi

Hi

There you go...I keep experimenting dishes till I get success, I never leave anything halfway....

[zem1956]

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@zem1956

[bluethnerfluegel]

Hello SVD yes we made it with young

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@bluethnerfluegel

Hi

I try to find young ginger but can't find. Enjoy!

[bluethnerfluegel]

It's very hot but good and thankyou bhavna

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@bluethnerfluegel

Hi

Did you find it hot? Then you must have got fresh, great ginger. When I make, I want hot but it is not that hot but I usually prepare cookies with this ginger so it is okay for me if it is not hot....

[Frostfire613]

With all that sugar, does it still keep that small spicy taste?

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@Frostfire613

HI

Yes, ginger taste is still there...enjoy!

[ninasmiles77]

hi Bhava can i do this with pineapple or any other fruit as well

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@ninasmiles77

Yes, candied fruits are also prepared so you can follow the recipes with little variations...

[TheSpyChecker]

ise qhweem! haha i love you accent :) my friends mum has it, it's adorable

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@TheSpyChecker

HI

Thanx and enjoy!

[lavina2001j]

Hi Bhavna

I tried this but mine were very liquidy and not dry as yours.

when i refrigerated, they were watery.

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@lavina2001j

Hi

The only reason is that your syrup must be liquidy and not sort of thick candied...very simple recipe so you can't go wrong....just try to focus on sugar syrup.

[sasi1273]

[cleanhomer]

Very good, but I noticed- particularly at 3:30- the video seems to be highly edited. Perhaps problems on the set? :)

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@cleanhomer

Hi

Will look into it. Thanx.

[Faithingreatgod]

Thx for sharing recipe of tamarind candy..as m new to cooking I hv to ask u some silly question. Tamarind pulp paste is available in the market or v hv to prepare it at home? And if it is not available in the market how can we prepare that at home. It will be more helpful if u upload video of preparing tamarind candy.

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@Faithingreatgod

Hi

Tamarind paste can be prepared at home or can be bought ready. Make sure that the paste is thick enough meaning nothing else is added to it. I will try to show. Enjoy!

[TheTippayarat]

I love Ginger..

But...

Luv You More...

[Faithingreatgod]

Hi Bhavna..thx for this recipe..I want to learn tamarind candy tht r sugar coated n it is available in Indian store. Plz post the recipe of tamarind candy, if u know how it is prepared.

[SuperVeggieDelight]

@Faithingreatgod

Hi

Very easy recipe

1/2 cup tamarind pulp paste

1 cup white sugar or 1 cup brown sugar

Mix the tamarind flesh(paste) with the sugar, and roll into a smooth ball, about 3/4 inch in diameter, with a tamarind seed in the center. Roll the ball in granulated sugar, and store in an airtight container.

you can spice it up with garlic and black pepper powder and also cayenne pepper can be added to paste.

[MissRaniKaur]

If you were waiting, you could have told me...since I did not have any request for this recipe, I was just thinking whether I should post or not but since candied ginger is one of my favorite, I went ahead and did video! So next time, anything on your mind, please let me know...so I don't keep thinking to show it or not!! Enjoy!
