Prep:30minCook:30min
When I was expecting my first child I could not keep anything down. I always needed a piece of ginger around me or I would be sick. That was a rough time because I was always hungry. Once I found out getting ginger candy was hard to find or if I did find some it was not very tasty or very costly. I researched different recipes and took what I liked from each one to create Ann's Candied Ginger.
