Cooking Skills：Ginger is widely used. Due to its strongest spiciness, old ginger is often used to make seasonings. When cooking meat, such as pork or fish, ginger can not only remove the fishy smell, but also enhance the aroma. Ginger can also be ground into juice and used as a dipping sauce, and tender ginger with more water is the most suitable. Ginger can also be pickled into kimchi. And cooking chicken wine, ginger duck will use old ginger. Ginger will be sliced, shredded, or chopped into minced ginger depending on the type of dish. Since the aroma of ginger is not heat-resistant, the cooking time should not be too long. If you want to retain the aroma of ginger, you need to abandon the traditional method of sauteing and add ginger later. Since the skin of ginger has the effect of stimulating the stomach to secrete digestive enzymes and reducing swelling and water, there is no need to deliberately peel off the skin when cooking ginger.
