It contains many active substances that strengthen the immune system.Ginger traces its origins back over 5,000 years to ancient China and India, where it was highly valued for its medicinal properties. Once rare and expensive, ginger is now grown across the tropics and used worldwide. The ground powder has a uniquely sharp, peppery, citrusy flavor. It adds a spicy kick and bright accent to sweet and savory dishes. Use ginger powder liberally in curries, stir-fries, baked goods, marinades for meat, and spiced tea. Sprinkle it on oatmeal, toast, or add to chili for flavor.
