Ginger Tale
Ginger is taking root in products as varied as gummy bears, teas, and ice creams. And for good reason: It's flavorful and good for you! Her's the rundown on what you need to know!
BENEFITS: It aids digestion and helps relieve motion sickness. It's no accident ginger ale is a favorite airplane beverage for some!! But, did you know you can make your own!! And it has been known to stimulate circulation and fight infections!
ORIGIN: Native to Southeast Asia and popular in China and India, ginger is a rhizome, or underground stem. It was one of the first herbs to reach Europe from Asia to be used as a seasoning for food and was once as commonplace in England as pepper! Love the fresh smell of freshly cut Ginger!!
WHERE TO BUY IT: Your local grocery store, farmer's market, or on the internet at www.gingerpeople.com
I use it daily in most of my recipes!! I've notice a lot of you do too!! Great!! Love to use Ginger when making my homemade Ginger Ice Cream!! or Stir Fries, or Teas!!! Remember when purchasing Ginger, select the firm ones! Smooth skin and no spots!!
