This was for my friend who is a ginger fiend. It definitely took some elbow grease to grate that all up. Worth it though

    This looks intense, I really want to try it.

    How would it go using preserved ginger (in syrup)? Slightly less elbow grease, or just stickier?

      That’s my next goal. I think you could easily put a bunch of dried Ginger that could be used for ginger tea into boiling water and then make a simple out of that. I’ll do anything to save on grating time.
