Notes
To peel ginger, the easiest way is to use a spoon. Holding the piece of ginger in one hand, scrape towards you with a spoon to remove the skin. Peel only the amount of ginger that you need, and store the rest in the fridge, unpeeled. To grate peeled ginger, a micro-plane, zester, or small herb grater work perfectly.
