Does anyone have a recipe for making your own gari? I've made it in the
past, but want to see if anyone has any other ideas. I know it has to
be sliced paper thin. I have both a commercial meat slicer (which is
what I think I used before) and a cuisinart...

There seem to be quite a few recipes for making your own gari on the net..

etc

Since gari is a relatively inexpensive item at my Japanese grocery store I
never bothered
to consider making it myself. I suppose it would be a different matter if I
had alot of
ginger on my hands.
