Ground Ginger

Ground Ginger is the powdered form of dried ginger root used widely in Asian, Middle Eastern and Western baking and spice blends for its warm, peppery flavor and aromatic heat. It is a concentrated spice often used in small amounts to season sweet and savory dishes, marinades, teas and baked goods. As a dry spice, Ground Ginger is a concentrated source of dietary fiber, providing 14.1g per 100g, and it supplies notable minerals such as iron and manganese along with modest protein and very little fat. Ground ginger also delivers bioactive pungent compounds (like gingerols and shogaols) that contribute flavor and traditional anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits. Because it is a dried, concentrated spice, it’s valued more for its flavor and phytochemicals than as a bulk nutrient — it contributes micronutrients and fiber in small doses and is a useful way to add antioxidant, warming notes to dishes without adding calories.
