Pages: 1 Question About Fresh Ginger Root       #62687 - 04/19/04 03:59 PM Edit Reply Quote Shell Marr Reged: 08/04/03 Posts: 14959 Loc: Seattle, WA USA How would you properly store fresh ginger root after you break off what you need? How long should it keep? -------------------- www.facebook.com/shell.marr www.myspace.com/shellmarr Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Storing Fresh Ginger Root       #62750 - 04/19/04 06:48 PM Edit Reply Quote KellyAndersson Reged: 03/24/04 Posts: 272 Loc: N.California Put it in the vegetable bin in the fridge. It should keep in there about as long as a carrot would, maybe longer. Better to NOT put it in a plastic bag in the fridge (same for all vegetables in there). Ginger in the bath: If you cut off a couple little slices of the ginger root (like carrot pennies) and put them in a big bowl or basin with hot water, it makes a nice footbath. Sit with your feet in it and you will get warm all over. Good for colds, flu, fever. You can put the ginger in the bathtub and get in it -- but TAKE IT EASY and watch out on this, it's easy to overdo it if you're not used to it!!

It lasts practically forever in the freezer. -------------------- "Anyone can exercise, but this kind of lethargy takes real discipline." -Garfield Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
