Peel, core and finely chop the pears. Also peel the medium-sized ginger root and cut into very small pieces, approx. 5 mm.
Put the whole thing in a saucepan and add the packet of cardamom and pour the sugar water, which has been boiled with the clove and lemon, possibly a few squirts, over it. If you like, you can also add a little vanilla sugar to the sugar water.
Now pour the preserving sugar over it and let it work for a few hours. Then bring to the boil as instructed by the package and fill into twist-off jars that have been washed out with hot water.
I can assure you that this tastes super delicious and is a pleasure for all ginger friends.
It can be eaten as a spread, but is also suitable for parties.
