Ingredients

• Look for crisp, firm pieces with a tan skin that is free of mold. Generally found in large pieces, snap off the amount you need to buy.

Preparation

Step 1

Slightly spicy, ginger adds great flavor to Asian dishes as well as chutneys, salads and desserts.

Before cooking, peel with a small sharp knife or vegetable peeler. The flesh may be thinly sliced, minced or grated. Add towards the end of cooking for a more pungent flavor.
