fresh ginger
Spicy aromatic root
Fresh ginger is the raw, unprocessed rhizome of the ginger plant, as opposed to dried, powdered, or preserved forms.
It has a fibrous texture, papery skin, and pungent, slightly spicy flavor used in cooking and beverages.
Recipes specify fresh ginger when the brighter, sharper taste matters: Grate about an inch of fresh ginger into the stir-fry.
