How to store freshly grated ginger おろし生姜の保存方法

When I buy a bag of ginger, I always let some of it get moldy or go bad, which is a waste. So whenever I buy a whole bag, I like to cut it all up and freeze it.You can save some time and effort when you're cooking. It seems that some people chop it up finely and freeze it, but in our house we use julienned ginger the most.If you freeze julienned ginger, if you leave it out for a bit at room temperature, you can chop it up easily even if it's still a bit frozen.

This wisdom was passed down to me from my beloved grandmother who was born in the Meiji Era.A great-grandmother to my precious daughter, she was an energetic woman who lived until 101.This turns out beautifully when grated!Let sit to defrost a bit before slicing.Since the core might still be frozen, use a sharp knife, but be careful not to hurt yourself!When using them whole, just plop them into the pan as is.

Fresh ginger sometimes in one bundle. For me who only cook during weekend or public holday, I use only a bit of ginger. How? I remember my mom ever gave me small chops dry ginger ready for cook or drinks when I came to Singapore. So I tried to produce the same now. Here are the tips

While using aluminum foil for this same method is handy, the foil gets mixed into the ginger or other grated condiments, so I use parchment paper instead.This method takes advantage of the sturdiness and strong water-resistant coating of the parchment paper, which prevents the ginger from sticking!This is a super convenient trick for when you only need a small amount of garlic, ginger or wasabi! This method is not suitable for grating large quantities of condiments at the same time, so change the parchment paper after each use. Also, the trick is to grate in one fixed direction to prevent the paper from tearing. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

My mom's pickled ginger was a bit tough and sour, so I make it with the pickling liquid that I learned how to make after I got married. I enjoy making this each year.If you have leftover pickling liquid, try this:.This pickled ginger shouldn't really be kept a long time (it has moisture); this is something to be made fresh every season. It'll keep longer if you use a clean spoon for every use. Since the ginger is tender, this can be eaten right away.Since the pickling liquid is heated, it takes on the pink color right away.

I have been making "gari" sushi ginger since I saw a recipe in a book I borrowed from the library some time ago. After making it many times, I've added my own tricks to make improve the results, to create my own gari recipe.The points that I think are important are:● Bring the sweet vinegar sauce to a boil to take the edge of the sharpness of the vinegar● Boil the ginger to eliminate the slightly grassy flavor it has (If you just boil it for 2-3 minutes, it'll retain the crispy texture).● Use good quality vinegar.This gari recipe is quite sweet. Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. Recipe by Raby

I love red pickled ginger, but I worry about the food coloring and additives in the store-bought type. It's also a shame to toss out the plum vinegar from making umeboshi. Simplifying the salting and drying process, I was able to produce a delicious red pickled ginger.There's nothing much to it. All of the amounts are approximate.Just a light sprinkle of salt and enough plum vinegar to cover the ginger.As a rule of thumb, the amount of salt should be 4% the amount of ginger, so you can approximate with the proportion of 100 g ginger to 4 g salt. Recipe by Nanako

This is a staple in our house. When preparing a batch of sushi rice, use 80 ml of rice vinegar, 2-3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt for 3 rice cooker cups of rice (480 ml), and it will have just the right amount of sweetness.If you dissolve the sugar while heating the vinegar, the vinegar flavor will dissipate and become weak, so let the sugar dissolve naturally.The vinegar sauce is not that sweet. Adjust the amount of sugar to taste.To reduce the salt, use 1 teaspoon for 80 ml of vinegar. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

I made momiji oroshi at home because the color of the bottled store-bought version looked unnatural.If you soften the chili pepper, it'll be easier to stick it to the cooking chopstick.When grating, if there are large pieces of chili pepper, just continue grating the daikon against it and it will become small.

Between spring and summer, large bunches of parsley are often on special offer. They're cheap, but it's too much to use up. That's why I wanted to come up with a good way of storing them.I thought it would be handy to have it on hand after drying and breaking up into little flakes.The color of parsley won't fade away if you dry them with this method. With this method, it's been easier for me to always have a jar of parsley around.The time to dry the parsley in the microwave is about 8 minutes in total at 600 W. But please adjust the time depending on the volume of the parsley.The stem doesn't taste nice, so only use the leaves.If you dry the parsley too much, it may catch a fire. So repeat Step 2 and 3 carefully. Recipe by Pinokogohan

Several years ago, a trustworthy greengrocer taught me how to prepare sansho peppercorns for freezer stock. Ever since, then I've been processing them whenever I find them on sale at the supermarket, and freeze stocking. That way, I can enjoy their refreshing fragrance and zing all year round.Important! I often see recipes that say "take the peppercorns off the branches...", but...you actually don't need to do that. It's much easier if you boil them on the branches; they come off much easier afterwards. I often just boil them and freeze them still on the branches. They pop right off the branches that way. Recipe by Mekamahao

Natto is often sold in packs of 3 or 4. It is difficult to eat it all by the "best by" date, so I use this method to keep it fresh. A lot of people don't know this method, so I thought I'd share it here.Chopped natto won't come unstuck quickly after freezing, so microwave for a short time to loosen. It is easier to mince if it is still mostly frozen. I tried a pack that was stored for 4 months, but the texture wasn't good and the grains were dehydrated. I recommend keeping the natto for up to a month. Recipe by Nanaha778

When you see how quick and easy it is to make and how fresh and clean it tastes, you may never go back to the storebought stuff!Select ginger that's dense for its size with smooth peel. That means it's still nice and fresh with high water content (and therefore not so fibrous).

Farmers who cultivate bamboo from their own groves preserve it this way. (And sell them this way, too).I don't have my own bamboo grove , but I do receive a lot, or at least a whole bunch at once, so this is one job I do with my mother-in-law...I don't have any experience using jam jars, so I recommend using a screw top storage jar like the one shown above. Make sure to pack the jar as tightly as possibly to keep air from getting in, and close the lid as tightly as possible! Take care not to burn yourself! Store in a cool, dark place once it has cooled. It is the same as any other boiled food once you open the jar. Make sure to use it up quickly after opening. Recipe by uronn
