Q&A for How to Grate Ginger

Yes, it is very good and healthy for you.

Yes, ginger can be frozen whole, sliced or grated. I freeze my ginger whole, break off what I want to use and grate it frozen. I find grating frozen ginger is easier than unfrozen. If the ginger is young I don't even remove the papery outside of the ginger. What we get in supermarkets nowadays is usually young, the older ginger is a little darker brown skin and is much stronger than younger ginger.

I find it more stringy when it's less fresh. When it is more fresh, it is also more moist, hence smoother grating. Do you have to grate it? You could peel it and then mince instead.

Dice it into small bits and blend, then add the juice to your tea.

I wouldn't say it's very common, but it's not unheard of either.

Sure, but you should defrost the ginger first.
