- Sprinkle the sliced ginger with a little salt (not listed), and mix up quickly. Leave it for a while.
- Make the sweet vinegar sauce: Put the vinegar, sugar, honey and salt in a pan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low-medium, and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat. Pour into storage jars that have been sterilized in boiling water, and leave to cool.
- Bring water to a boil in another pan, and add the sliced ginger from Step 2, salt and all. Boil for 3 minutes, then drain well. Put the ginger slices in the sweet vinegar sauce filled jars while still hot. (They will turn a pretty pink after some time.)
