Meals You Can Make With ginger

Ways to Use ginger

Peel with the edge of a spoon. It’s faster and wastes less than using a knife.

Grate or mince fine so it blends into the dish. Larger chunks stay fibrous.

Add ginger early with oil to mellow the bite, or later if you want it sharper.

Use medium heat. Too hot and it can burn quickly and turn bitter.

A little goes a long way. Start small, taste, then add more if needed.
