How to choose fresh ginger
- Fresh ginger is characterized by medium-sized roots, with a slightly rough outer skin, not too bright in color, having many branches and distinct veins.
- Additionally, when breaking it, you will see the inner flesh has fibers and a bright yellow color.
- Moreover, avoid buying ginger if there is no strong fragrant smell, or if it only has a strong chemical smell or no smell at all, as these indicate that the ginger is not good.
