Yes, there are many different ways to consume fresh ginger apart from cooking. I am really inclined towards this amazing ginger how safely and naturally it cures and soothes an upset stomach.
When you buy ginger, look for full, plump roots that are juicy, and not dried out on ends at all. You can consume ginger in following ways;
In hot tea – People drink gallons of hot ginger tea within fall and winter. However, take a chunk of fresh ginger from fresh ginger exporters (don’t peel) and add it in mug of hot boiling water with a teaspoon of honey, and few drops of lemon. This makes a perfect winter tonic.
You can also add bourbon in case of cough
Soup – Fresh ginger, grated or pureed, brings wonderful zest to hot, creamy winter soups. Try this Indian-spiced carrot soup with ginger or this sweet potato soup with miso and ginger.
With fish – We really like spicy ginger with tender, flaky fish. Try this recipe for Ginger and Cilantro Baked Tilapia; full of flavor, and it only takes a few minutes to bake.
In stir-fries – Almost every stir-fry could use a little grated or even minced ginger to spice things up.
In sweet things – It’s baking time, and there are lots of sweet things that are great with fresh ginger. Try steeping milk with ginger for these caramels. Or try ginger hand pies or pumpkin pie with fresh ginger.
