Dehydrated Ginger Minced
Dehydrated minced ginger is a convenient, long-lasting alternative to fresh ginger that can be used in baked goods, marinades, and other dishes. Here are some tips for dehydrating ginger:
-
Choose Fresh Ginger :
When buying ginger, select a root that snaps cleanly off without stringy fibers.
-
Prepare the Ginger :
Clean and peel the ginger, then slice it as thinly as possible.
-
Dry the Ginger :
You can dry ginger in the sun, in a dehydrator, or in a low oven:
-
In the Sun :
Place the ginger slices on a plate next to a sunny window for 3 to 4 days.
-
In a Dehydrator :
Set the dehydrator to the appropriate heat setting and check the ginger every 30 minutes.
-
In a low oven :
Set the oven to no hotter than 150°F and check the ginger every 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Test for Dryness :
The ginger is dry when it's crunchy and you can easily snap a piece in two. If it's still slightly sticky or moist, it needs more time in the dehydrator.
-
Store the Ginger :
Store dehydrated ginger in an airtight container for up to a year.
-
Rehydrate the Ginger :
Soak dehydrated ginger in water for a few minutes before use.
