Knead the finely chopped ginger with sugar, butter, flour, and salt into a smooth dough. Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat) (160°C fan/convection oven). Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of 1 cm, then prick several times with a fork. Cut into small squares and bake on a baking sheet lined with baking paper for 20-30 minutes. Roll the squares in the caster sugar while they are still hot.
