It can be stored for two or three weeks at room temperature, wrapped in aluminum foil.
To determine if the ginger is fresh, make sure it has a fresh and spicy fragrance and that its skin is smooth and soft, with firm and hard tubers.
Make sure it does not have wrinkles or a soft texture, as this would mean it is older.
Refrigeration: In case we have bought a large amount of ginger that we will not use in a short time, it should be stored in the refrigerator, where it can be kept for two months.
It is important not to wash the tubers before putting them in the refrigerator, but only when we are going to use them.
This is because moisture can promote the proliferation of bacteria that will cause it to rot more quickly.
Since only a small amount is usually used, what we should do is grate or slice the part we are going to use into thin slices, and store the rest again in the refrigerator wrapped in plastic wrap or in a bag making sure to remove all the air from the inside.
It will last longer if you keep it with its peel and it will also preserve its flavor better.
Fresh ginger can also be stored for up to a year in the freezer.
In that case, the most practical thing is to slice it into slices already peeled and freeze it in a ziplock bag making sure to remove the air from the inside.
We can also freeze smaller pieces with their skin.
This way, if we are going to use ginger in one of our recipes, we just have to thaw what we need and it will last longer.
In high doses, it can cause gastritis and is not recommended for gastroduodenal ulcers.
Pregnant and lactating women are recommended to take it in low doses and for short periods.
It is also not suitable for children under 6 years old.
