[Sca-cooks] Re: green ginger upon sirop

[Vincent Cuenca]

I think the green ginger in question is a very fresh ginger, i.e. just dug
out of the ground.  I seem to remember reading somewhere that ginger was
grown in England at some point, but it's fuzzy.  There is a recipe for green
ginger comfit in the "Llibre de totes maneres de confits" that calls for
soaking the ginger in an acidic mixture for an entire year.  Sheesh!
