Tips for Success
Crushed ginger is best suited for savory dishes, particularly stir-fries, soups, and marinades, where its moist, fibrous texture and distinct flavor add a unique bite and mouthfeel. It's also used in Asian cuisine for curries and other spicy dishes, and can be added to salad dressings or fruit salads for a spicy kick.
FAQ
How old are these spices?
We purchase what we need every year right after the spices are harvested. These spices are as fresh as you can get. They are not sitting in a warehouse for multiple years. The oldest spices we carry will be one year old compared to the commodity market which warehouses spices for 10+ years before selling them to you.
