Stem ginger

Adrak

20 g1 one preserved stem ginger knob (about 20 g)

Preserved stem ginger pieces vary; ~20 g each.

Nothing truly replaces the sweet preserved ginger syrup; fresh ginger gives heat but not the same sticky sweetness.

• 
  Fresh ginger

  Use the same weight; it is much hotter and not sweet, so add about 5 g sugar per 25 g fresh ginger and grate finely.

• 
  Ginger paste

  Use the same weight; it gives heat but no syrup, so add a little sugar if the recipe needs sweetness.

• 
  Ground ginger

  Use 1 g ground ginger for 10 g stem ginger; it is much stronger and lacks the syrupy texture.
