My Chinese mother used fresh ginger root in a lot of her recipes. She added it to congee, fish dishes and soups.
I like to place it in the middle of trout or sea bass along with spring onion and garlic before placing them in our steamer. I then add ginger to the accompanying sauce along with soy, rice wine, garlic and toasted sesame seeds (a Delia Smith recipe). I use grated ginger in a honey and lemon hot drink when I have a cold or flu. My kids also love gingerbread π.
Ginger has impressive, proven health benefits. It has been commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine. It contains Gingerol, an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory bioactive compound.
Ginger is used to treat nausea including morning sickness, muscle soreness from exercise, symptoms of osteoarthritis, to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels, to treat indigestion, improve brain function and fight infections among other reputed health benefits.
Did you know that ginger is classed as a spice and originated from China?

I love it!
I love ginger!
I eat it raw, together with bananas π and celery! π Than I started drinking !BEER π» and eating less raw fruits and vegetables: thatβs not much healthy, isnβt it?
Cheers and !giphy fruit+raw
