3. Preserving Ginger for Maximum Freshness
Do’s:
✔️ Store whole ginger root in a cool, dry place if using within a week.
✔️ For long-term storage, keep unpeeled ginger in the fridge, wrapped in a paper towel and placed in a breathable bag.
✔️ If you want to keep ginger for months, freeze it! Simply wash, dry, and store in a sealed freezer bag. Frozen ginger can be grated directly into dishes without thawing.
Don’ts:
❌ Avoid storing ginger in a closed plastic bag at room temperature—it will trap moisture and cause mold.
❌ Do not leave ginger exposed to air for too long, as it dries out quickly.
💡 Pro Tip: You can also preserve ginger in honey for a natural remedy against colds and digestion issues! Just peel and slice ginger, submerge it in honey, and store it in the fridge.
