Question

Can ginger be frozen?

Answer 1

Yes, ginger can be frozen. It can be either peeled first or frozen without peeling. Wrap it well in plastic wrap and place in the freezer. When you are ready to use it, don't thaw; simply grate enough of the frozen ginger for your recipe, re-wrap the still frozen ginger root, and place it back in the freezer.
