ginger extract

Root flavor essence

Ginger extract is a concentrated form of ginger, typically produced by soaking ginger root in alcohol or another solvent to draw out its flavor compounds and bioactive substances.

Used in cooking, baking, and herbal remedies: Add a few drops of ginger extract to the batter.

The extract delivers ginger's characteristic warmth and spice more intensely than fresh or dried ginger.
