Soak 300gms sliced ginger in ice water with a little vinager 
for a few hours.  Drain. The ginger should then be blanched 
in salty boiling water, drained, and allowed to cool.

Bring to a boil and let cool the following mixture:

1 cup rice vinager
1/2 cup or more sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1/3 cup water

After the mixture has cooled, add it to the ginger. Refrigerate.

I use a vegetable peeler to slice the ginger nice and thin; a 
food processor does not work!
