Pickled Ginger

Making your own pickled ginger is so easy and it comes out delicious. Take note that using the chilli makes it very spicy and you make want to skip that option.

Ingredients

½ cup rice wine vinegar
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons honey
½ teaspoon coriander seeds
1 thai chili (chopped) - optional
2 tablespoons cilantro (chopped)
½ cup fresh ginger (sliced very thin)
½ teaspoon sea salt

Directions

Bring vinegar and water to a boil.
Add the honey and stir until completely dissolved.
Add the coriander, chopped chili (if you want your ginger to be spicy) and cilantro and give a stir. Set aside.
Now chop the ginger very very thin. Try to slice as consistent as possible. A mandolin works great for this but take care as cutting ginger is a little dangerous.
Now sprinkle the salt on the ginger and toss well. Let it sit for 30 minutes.
Give the ginger a little squeeze and then place into the pickling liquid and give a stir.
As long as the ginger is submerged in the liquid, it should last for up to 3 months in the fridge.
