You can use some of it to make dal! It's easy to make, vegan and it freezes well, so you can make a big batch.
You can candy the ginger, which will preserve it a bit and can be used in baked goods or eaten alone!
I have less experience with the curcuma but I've seen it added to smoothies. I think it can flavor some toasted nuts for a salad topping, or it can be made into a paste like you've done for a curry.
Yum. I would freeze the ginger and add it to rice!
so i peel them, chop them into smaller pices, and freez them? it's really that easy?
and afterwards you put them into the water when cooking rice? who much do you use for that? do you also eat the ginger, or is it removed after cooking?
This is a bit of a weird one and won't use up much of your ginger, but apple pie/cake/tart is really good with some ginger mixed into it. I typically prepare a sauce with the ginger and (some of) the apples, cooked until saucy, and spread that over the dough before adding apple slices (and whatever else) on top.
Too much ginger is no bueno for this, but it adds a nice kick. I don't do regular apple cake anymore.
this sounds like a good excuse to bake an apple cake :-)
do you have a link to the recipe you like to ginger up?
The recipe is made up and lives in my head. The main thing would be the quark-oil dough like in this recipe, although I would add some lemon zest to the dough. For the ginger, a piece the size of the tip of your thumb would probably be enough (perhaps a bit less if you have large thumbs, the taste gets milder as the sauce cooks).
