Brown sugar ginger jujube paste, a nourishing traditional remedy, is loved for its warming properties and rich flavor. Here’s a simple recipe to make it at home.
Ingredients:
200g brown sugar (preferably dark brown), 150g fresh ginger (sliced and pounded), 150g red dates (pitted and chopped), 50g goji berries (optional), and 100ml water.
Steps:
1. Prep Ingredients: Rinse red dates and goji berries. Peel ginger, slice thinly, and lightly pound to release oils.
2. Cook Ginger & Dates: In a pot, add ginger, red dates, and water. Simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes until soft.
3. Add Sugar: Stir in brown sugar, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
4. Blend & Thicken: Once the mixture thickens, use a blender to achieve a smooth paste (or mash manually for a chunkier texture).
5. Store: Cool completely, then transfer to a clean, airtight jar. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks.
Tips: For a stronger ginger kick, add a pinch of ground ginger. Adjust sugar to taste. Enjoy a spoonful daily mixed in warm water, tea, or as a spread! This golden paste is perfect for cold days or boosting energy.
