How to Store Fresh Ginger Root
Freezer method (best, up to 6 months): wrap unpeeled ginger in plastic or freezer bag. Grate frozen — no thawing needed, actually easier to grate. Water method (fridge, up to 3 weeks): submerge in a jar of water, change every few days. Countertop (1 week): keep unpeeled in cool, dry spot. Signs of bad ginger: soft spots, excessive wrinkling, mold, or musty smell. Pro tip: peel, cut into 1-inch pieces, freeze on baking sheet before bagging for easy portioning.
