Ginger is amazing!
Nooo, not you! I'm sure you are wonderful and all and I just want to pinch those freckled cheeks right off of you, but NO.
Again, adorable, but NO!
Yes!!! That's the stuff! Ginger has long been loved for its medicinal qualities, but did you know it is also delicious? I use grated ginger in muffins and baked goods, soups, meat marinades, teas, stir frys...
It adds amazing flavor with virtually no calories! If you need a BETTER reason to try ginger, it has been said that it stimulates everything from metabolism to sexual prowess. More notably, it is a powerful antioxidant and makes your guts happy. It has anti nausea and anti inflamatory powers and protects againt butt cancer! Seriously. Who wants butt cancer?
The other thing I love about Ginger is how cheap and easy it is to keep fresh ginger on hand (although powdered is great too).
Buy ginger fresh in the produce section, peel it and keep it in a freezer bag in the freezer. It will stay good virtually forever and grates SUPER easy when it is frozen. I use a standard box grater to grate mine.
Ginger. Not just my sister anymore.
