GINGER
Ginger is a flavouring from a tuberous root of Zingiber officinale.. The root is often dried and ground or
"crystallized" with sugar.
Traditional Ethnic Uses
Ginger is used in gingerbread, ginger ale, gingersnaps, and Asian
dishes.
Taste and Aroma
Ginger has a slightly biting and hot note. Its aroma is rich, sweet,
warm, and woody.
A Few Ideas
Since ginger is a fibrous root, at times
fibres may get into the
manufactured product. Crystallized Ginger can replace fresh Ginger.
Wash
off the sugar first if desired when preparing a savoury dish.
