Ginger

I made a bit of an error when doing my online shopping, and now have lots and lots of fresh ginger.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do with it. TIA.

I use huge amounts - have it in Rooibos tea (redbush) - most stewed fruit recipes - stir fries- absolutely anything that needs a bit of a bite. I'm under correction here but think you can freeze it.

Ah, that's brilliant! I didn't even think about freezing it.

Ta very muchly :)

plant some in a pot in well drained soil and put on a warm windowsill. It is highly unlikely to flower but the tall stems with narrow leaves are quite attractive and in the sun they give of a slight scent of ginger. you need bit with buds on, sort of little pearly shiny areas on the bumps on the ginger

Ginger beer for the summer yum yum.....even better over vodka,

Make Ginger beer. I drink ginger beer every night, just a glass before bed time :-)

Yes it freezes great and you can grate it whilst still partially frozen, which means you can re-freeze it again
