Gourmet Garden™ Lightly Dried Ginger is simply fresh ginger that has been conveniently washed and chopped for you, and packed into a handy click and stack bowl. Our Ginger is picked when the essential oils are at their peak to maximize the fresh flavor, color and aroma. Lightly Dried Ginger takes all the preparation hassle out of your cooking. Ginger can be used as a base for sweet or savory dishes and should generally be added at the beginning of your cooking. It is ideal in Asian dishes: curries, stir-frys, dressings, juices and cookies.
