Fresh, Flavourful & Juicy Ginger

Fresh ginger

I am still in Guyana having a really good time. This week's column features an ingredient that is universally integral to many cuisines - ginger. From curries, to stews, to desserts and beverages, ginger often plays a flavourful role. In Guyana, one of our popular beverages, made all year-round but especially at Christmas is ginger beer. This is not the alcoholic version and our ginger beer does not require the use of yeast. It is more like a fruit drink. The Ginger Beer recipe is book-embargoed by my publisher, click here if you are interested. To read more, click here.
