Ginger · diced · in cane syrup

Diced ginger.
With cane sugar.

The short answer: diced ginger dried after being soaked in cane syrup. The pack says ginger 57 % and cane sugar 43 %: it contains sugar, so it is not sugar-free ginger, nor is it made with honey or fructose. It starts earthy and ends with a slow warmth. It keeps for up to 12 months without a fridge and you eat it as it is, in hot water or chopped into cooking.

What it is. Ginger is the rhizome of a plant, a fleshy root, not a fruit. These dice are ginger dried after being soaked in cane syrup: the sugar softens the heat without hiding it.

Ingredients: ginger 57 %, cane sugar 43 %. Dried after being soaked in cane syrup.

Frequently asked questions

What people usually ask.

What is ginger for, and how do people use it?+

Born does not attribute properties or effects to this product, and there is no authorised claim we could cite. What we can tell you is what it is, what it tastes like and how it is used: diced ginger in cane syrup, eaten after a meal, dropped into hot water or chopped into stir-fries and soups.

Is there sugar-free ginger?+

Not this one. The dice are dried after being soaked in cane syrup and the pack says ginger 57 % and cane sugar 43 %. If you are looking for ginger without sugar, this is not it.

Does ginger contain fructose?+

These dice have no added fructose: they have cane sugar. Born's ginger pieces with fructose do contain it in their sweet coating, and their pack also says the ginger is made with a cane syrup coating. If you avoid fructose, read the pack and check with your doctor.

Is ginger a fruit or a plant?+

It is a plant: what you eat is its rhizome, a fleshy root. It is sold next to semi-dried fruit because it is eaten as a sweet.

Does it need a fridge?+

No. Keep it somewhere cool and dry. Unopened, it lasts up to 12 months.

When will it arrive?+

In 48 to 72 working hours. Delivery is free on orders over €45.

Limit

It is sugared ginger and it is hot: a few dice are better than a handful.

Allergens

May contain traces of nuts and peanuts.

Once opened

Close the bag well and keep it in the same cool, dry place.
