ginger, ginger

some friends know i like to cook. not really bakery. but cook chinese food with the wok. dishes like fried rice, bee hoon, steam fish, stew,..

Mmm, today i chanced upon an article that shared more abt the ginger.. wanna capture it here before i forget..

Difference between old, mature ginger and young ginger. And when to use them?
Answer: To use young or old ginger depends on your taste. Old, mature ginger has a throat-filling heat and more pungency. Young ginger is light and has subtle lemony warmth which is not lasting in favor. Mature ginger more suited for longer cooking dishes such as slow braises or cakes. Young ginger more suited for brief cooking such as pickles, dips, dressings and salads.
