Ginger is easily one of my favorite spices. I put it in almost every smoothie I make as well as in a ton of different dishes. This makes ginger root quite the commodity in my household. On top of being delicious, you can alleviate stomach trouble, joint inflammation, and even menstrual pain with it.
That’s pretty useful! And it’s also easy to grow. You could realistically grow an endless supply of ginger right in your kitchen. How does that sound?
The ginger you find at the store may be used to make new plants. Select rhizomes, or the root stems, that are thick and smooth. Once you’ve purchased your ginger root, soak it in water overnight and cut into pieces.
