Production & Sourcing
Dried Crystallized Ginger Dices start with fresh ginger roots, which are peeled, sliced into small cubes, and then blanched to reduce bitterness and soften the texture. These ginger pieces are then simmered in a sugar syrup until they absorb the syrup’s sweetness and become candied.
Afterward, they’re dried using either air-drying or low-temperature oven drying methods until they reach the desired moisture content, resulting in chewy, crystallized ginger dices with a sweet, spicy flavor and vibrant golden color.
