Why we picked it

For baking, ground ginger is more practical than fresh: it is easy to measure and gives gingerbread, cakes or spice blends their warmth and citrusy note right away.

About the product

Ginger obtained from the dried, ground rhizome of the plant Zingiber officinale (the ginger family). It has a warm, pungent and slightly citrusy aroma, due to gingerol, milder than that of fresh ginger. It is used mainly in baking and in Asian cooking.

Taste and aroma

Tasting notes

Warm and pungent, with a citrusy note and a slight bitterness; milder than fresh ginger.

How to use it

  • Use it in gingerbread, ginger biscuits, loaf cakes and seasonal cakes.
  • Add it to marinades, sauces and Asian dishes, alongside garlic and soy.
  • Flavour tea, hot lemonade or other spiced drinks.
  • It goes into spice blends for curries and for autumn desserts.

Storage

Ground ginger gradually loses its intensity, so keep it in a closed jar, away from light and damp, and use it within a reasonable time.

Keep somewhere dry and dark. Whole spices (seeds, sticks) hold their aroma far longer than ground ones.
