    List of Ingredients




    Ginger

    Recipe




    Freeze a peeled or unpeeled "hand" of ginger. While still frozen,
    grate or cut into small cubes and crush in garlic press for spicy
    ginger juice. (Freezing releases these juices and makes the ginger
    easier to crush.)

    Prepare ginger juice for use in recipes in two stages: First peel
    fresh ginger, chop it in a food processor, and freeze in a tightly
    covered container. When ready for juice, defrost the ginger and place it in four layers of cheesecloth or a man's cotton handkerchief; then squeeze this makeshift bag over a bowl

    For a quick snap of ginger flavor, cut fresh, unpeeled ginger into 1-
    to 2-inch pieces, place in a self-sealing plastic bag, and freeze.
    Defrost as needed, squeeze out the juice, and discard the mushy pulp.

    Because fresh ginger is quite acidic, it should be blanched before
    it's added to milk or cream. Otherwise, it may curdle.
