[net.cooks] storing fresh ginger root

jak (02/13/83)

Can anyone tell me the best way to store fresh ginger root?
It takes quite a while for us to use even a small piece.
Thanks in advance ...

Ginger root will keep in the frig. As an alternative, try marinating the
ginger root in sherry.

Try feezing, tighly wrapped in waxed paper and plastic wrap.  Grate
or chop the frozen root - much easier.
