Does anyone know an easy way to freeze fresh ginger root? I would like to make ginger tea.
Could I peel before freezing?You can just put the root directly into the freezer.
Peel.
Cut into useable pieces.
Seal in a plastic bag.
Place in the freezer.
Done.
If you are going to use it grated when you make tea then grating it beforehand will actually cause you more more. It can be grated straight from the freezer without even peeling it. Just stick the whole root in the freezer and when you want grated ginger just pull the root out and grate it (still frozen) then put the remaining amount back in the freezer.
Yeah I never would have thought you could either. Grated, you won't even notice it.
