So, what is ingwer?

Ingwer, also known as ginger, is a versatile and flavorful ingredient that adds a unique taste to many dishes. This knobby root has a spicy, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of citrus and a woody aroma. It is widely used in Asian cuisine, especially in curries, stir-fries, and soups. Ingwer is also popular in Western cuisine, where it is used in sweet dishes like gingerbread, ginger snaps, and ginger ale. In addition to its delicious taste, ingwer is believed to have many health benefits, including reducing inflammation, easing nausea, and improving digestion. It can be used fresh, dried, powdered, or as an extract, making it a must-have ingredient in any kitchen.
