GINGER is a versatile and aromatic rhizome known for its distinctive spicy and slightly sweet flavor. It has a knobby, tan-colored skin that, when peeled, reveals a fibrous, juicy flesh. The interior can vary in color from pale yellow to deep golden.
Uses:
- Culinary: Ginger is widely used in both sweet and savory dishes. It adds a zesty kick to stir-fries, soups, curries, and marinades.
