Description:
Ginger or ginger root is the rhizome of the plant Zingiber
officinale, consumed as a delicacy, medicine, or spice. It lends
its name to its genus and family. Other notable members of this
plant family are turmeric, cardamom, and galanga.
The demand market for sesame seed can be classified into two broad
groups namely that who import because of the high quality oil
extractable from the seed and those who buy for non-oil use.
The flesh of the ginger rhizome can be yellow, white or red in
color, depending upon the variety. It is covered with a brownish
skin that may either be thick or thin, depending upon whether the
plant was harvested when it was mature or young. The ginger rhizome
has a firm, yet striated texture and a taste that is aromatic,
pungent and hot.
How to Select and Store
Whenever possible, choose fresh ginger over the dried form of the
spice since it is not only superior in flavor but contains higher
levels of gingerol as well as ginger's active protease (it's
anti-inflammatory compound). Fresh ginger root is sold in the
produce section of markets. When purchasing fresh ginger root, make
sure it is firm, smooth and free of mold. Ginger is generally
available in two forms, either young or mature. Mature ginger, the
more widely available type, has a tough skin that requires peeling
while young ginger, usually only available in Asian markets, does
not need to be peeled.
Even through dried herbs and spices like ginger powder are widely
available in supermarkets, you may want to explore the local spice
stores in your area. Oftentimes, these stores feature an expansive
selection of dried herbs and spices that are of superior quality
and freshness than those offered in regular markets. Just like with
other dried spices, when purchasing dried ginger powder try to
select organically grown ginger since this will give you more
assurance that it has not been irradiated.
Ginger is also available in several other forms including
crystallized, candied and pickled ginger.
Fresh ginger can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three weeks if it is left unpeeled. Stored unpeeled in the freezer, it will keep for up to six months.
Dried ginger powder should be kept in a tightly sealed glass
container in a cool, dark and dry place. Alternatively, you can
store it in the refrigerator where it will enjoy an extended shelf
life of about one year.
