Hi Sharon, Ginger tea is wonderful and comforting. It's especially good if you are feeling congested or if your tummy isn't feeling just right!
An easy way to peel the ginger -- some people say the outer skin is a little bitter -- is to just use a spoon and scrape it all over. If you have more than you can use -- and cut ginger doesn't last long in the fridge -- you can freeze it, either sliced or grated or whole, or you can store it, in the refrigerator, in a container filled with sherry. It keeps for a long time that way, and you can flavor any Asian dish uyou may make with spoonsful of the sherry! Enjoy!
