Prepare ginger by peeling and slicing it. See notes below for tips.

Place the sliced ginger in a clean, large jar (32 ounces works well).

Pour the raw honey over the ginger until the ginger is fully covered, reserving at least one inch of space at the top of the jar to allow for expansion.

Place the lid on the jar and leave at room temperature to ferment for 2 weeks (or up to 3 months).

Open the lid to release gases once daily and also shake the closed jar or stir with a clean utensil once daily.

The ferment is ready when the honey is thinner, darker and tiny bubbles are visible on the surface.

Keep the honey stored at room temperature until used or store in the fridge to slow the ferment and keep stored for up to one year. You can enjoy the honey, ginger slices and all, or strain the ginger for a smooth honey—your pick!
