Thanks Adrianne!
Ginger sounds medicinal. Good for health reasons. I use it quite often. Makes flavorful dishes too.
Ginger is an incredibly popular ingredient in Chinese cooking for medicinal reasons too.
Ginger is such an awesome ingredient! I love using it whenever I can! Adds such great flavor to dishes!
Totally agree Shanika!
Great post since I love ginger a lot. I am never without frozen ginger. It’s good to have some more recipes to use it in.
Yeah, we can’t live without ginger either. Always next to my bulbs of garlic.
I love the idea of sauteing it with kale, I’ve never thought of adding ginger to greens. It sounds delicious.
Oh yes! Ginger is a fantastic way to give those greens an added kick!
