This is a brilliant product, and although there is no substitute for the real thing, it's
pretty close. It lasts forever in the fridge, unlike [[fresh ginger]], and is delicious directly from the bottle. The [[white wine vinegar]] it's pickled in takes the harshness off the [[ginger]], making it an irresistible snack while you cook! I notice that it's also a [[Delia Smith cheat]] as well. This is a personal recommendation by the way, no marketing involved. Made by [[EnglishProvender]]

Since I first wrote this article, I have been making my own lazy ginger with great success. It is simplicity itself. A [[cookery cheat]] worthy of Delia herself!

====Best recipe review====

''Freezing ginger is easier''

4/5 

I used to make this all the time. Now I slice it and freeze it in a Lock and Lock box

===How to make your own lazy ginger===

{{RecipeIngredients
| 1 kg peeled ginger root
| A few slices of peeled [[galangal]] (optional)
}}

===Method===
{{RecipeMethod
| Peel 2 or 3 tubers and slice into 3 mm discs. You can [[julienne]] the slices, but I find it easier to judge the amount of [[ginger]] to use from slices.
| Pack the slices into a clean sterilised jar.
| Fill with [[white wine vinegar]] to cover the [[ginger]].
| Store in a cool cupboard, it seems to last forever.
| Use the vinegar for cooking and salad dressings once the ginger has been used up.
}}

The ginger-flavoured vinegar you are left with is brilliant as a salad or vegetable dressing.

===Peeling ginger root===
Although we peel the ginger for this recipe, normally there is no need to peel ginger. As a result of attending a Thai cookery demo, we have learnt that peeling ginger is unnecessary unless for aesthetic purposes as the skin is high in fibre and full of flavour. However, do remove any bits that have become tough or woody.
