INCI: Zingiber officinale

Ginger Pieces are dried pieces of ginger root (Zingiber officinale) with a warm, peppery flavour and a naturally pungent aroma. The cut pieces are easy to add to cooking, and they also steep well for spice-forward infusions. Drying concentrates the flavour, so a small amount can go a long way in recipes. The pieces can be softened by soaking in hot water before chopping or blending into dishes.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in a smaller retail size.
