  • Pickled Ginger

    Sweet & Tangy Homemade Pickled Ginger (Gari)

    Ingredients:

    1 cup young ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

    1 teaspoon salt

    1/2 cup rice vinegar

    1/4 cup sugar

    1/4 cup water

    Directions:

    Peel the ginger using a spoon or paring knife and slice it as thin as possible (a mandoline helps!).

    Sprinkle the sliced ginger with salt and let it sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.

    Rinse the ginger under cold water and drain well.

    In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and water. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat.

    Place the ginger slices in a clean glass jar. Pour the warm vinegar mixture over the ginger until fully submerged.

    Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then seal the jar and refrigerate.

    Allow the ginger to pickle for at least 24 hours before using. It gets better over a few days!

    Prep Time: 10 minutes (plus resting) | Cooking Time: 5 minutes | Total Time: 1 day

  • Spiced Orange Cranberry Sauce

    Holiday Spiced Cranberry Sauce with Fresh Orange Zest and Warm Cinnamon

    Ingredients:

    12 oz (340g) fresh cranberries

    3/4 cup granulated sugar

    1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

    1/4 cup water

    1 tablespoon orange zest

    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

    1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

    Pinch of salt

    Directions:

    Rinse the cranberries and discard any that are soft or shriveled.

    In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, orange juice, water, orange zest, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.

    Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.

    Add the cranberries and cook for 10–12 minutes, or until most of them have burst and the sauce has thickened.

    Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.

    Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
