Fabulous idea. Never thought to do this. Next trip to store will start dehydrating
Fun fact, this method is best form to use Ginger when it has been dehydrated. If you grind it into powder you can sprinkle with food when cooking and then makes food more hot. Not Hot as in spicy or temperature but hot as in nature of food which brings more blood circulation into the body. So best way to take is small amount of Dry ginger and put into Thermo about 16oz at most. Then you add boiling water and close thermo and leave for 30min to cook dry ginger into water to make dry ginger tea. Then drink slowly. This will really help people with all kind of illness because it generates oxygen flow in the entire body and makes more heat in your body so organs work more properly and then you have less illness or problem or if already have illness can help reverse. Very good for Vegan diet too because most vegan diet is considered cold food so this is replacement for meat which is considered hot but none of the bad stuff that comes from eating meat. Hope this was useful. Good luck with all your ginger!

So kind of you to give the recipe. Greetings from Borneo.
I drink ginger root tea, I make one half gallon every third day and it helps with my arthritis a lot. Yes slices work great if you just want to make it quick too.
I just ground it up and it’s now in dehydrator. It smells so good! Once dry, I’m going to powder and use in foods and a tea. So good!
i would chop them to smaller pieces and grind them for powder. I do a lot of dehydrating, it saves space and veggies and meats can be used so many ways
Thank you so much for this. I’m trying to grow Ginger for the first time this year so this will come in very handy! I also ferment garlic in honey and take a teaspoonful every morning - seems to keep colds and flu at bay.
How do you ferment ginger in honey?
I just did ginger today!
Aha! Look at you, sis, with your 9 tray Excalibur with the glass door! Rockin and rollin 💯🙂🥳
That’s a lot of Ginger... I use to grow it when I lived in Florida....I guess liking the taste of it is a plus.... I warm it with a bit of lemon & honey like a tea and add it to seltzer water over ice ...so refreshing
Leisa, I watched this twice but didn't hear you say how you make your Ginger Water. How much ginger goes into 1 gallon of water? Do you drink it once a day, a quart a day, how do you do it? I love ginger, have used it for tummy issues but what you read makes it seem like a miracle plant. I watched a video, think 'Epic Gardener', about how to grow ginger in a pot. I am going to stock up with this fabulous herb. Thank you!
We harvested 3 gallon bags last Fall, and son took one. I'm going to use your method and dehydrate most of it! We love fresh shredded ginger. I also grew turmeric (take it daily for inflammation due to disc degeneration in lower back). Rather than peel it as recommended, I dehydrated it, then ground it fine. The skin doesn't grind the well so I just sifted it and composted the hard skin pieces. Two back surgeries helped somewhat but I can definitely tell if I get lazy on my turmeric intake. If ginger helps with inflammation as well as turmeric, count me in on ginger water!
Do you put your turmeric in capsules, if not how do you take it? I've been taking the commercially made capsules, on and off for years now. If I could grow enough to supply what I needed I definitely would.
@@LindaCBMediaGroup I cook with it, love mild curry dishes! I can’t grow enough so have to supplement with Vimerson Health capsules.
@@gsdalpha1358 thank you. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of most curry dishes. I'm allergic to coconut, and it's used in so much of those dishes.
@@LindaCBMediaGroup Oh, I loathe coconut milk - lol! Coconut and German chocolate cake - 10/10 love. But coconut shrimp? OMG, no! Some things just shouldn't be sweetened. See recipe below. I don't use masala (too much spice!), use Half&Half rather than coconut milk, and regular butter for ghee. I think we have the right to substitute in recipes! I've done a Middle Eastern dish, too, with rice and beans. No coconut milk in it! www.allrecipes.com/recipe/239867/chef-johns-chicken-tikka-masala/
Great video! Ty! Nvr thought of this!
I REALLY NEED TO DO THIS👍 Thanks Leisa. Love using it 👍🥰
I got a really good price on ginger and remembered you dehydrated your so that’s what I’m doing today. Also have leftover mushrooms from dinner and going to dehydrated them as well.
Thank You, Leisa
Thank you for taking the time to share, enjoyed
Ginger is my favorite. Crystalized ginger my ultimate favorite! Your kitchen must have smelt like heaven while you were drying that!
I am SO going to get some ginger to dehydrate for our pantry. We keep it in the freezer, and it just didn't occur to me to dehydrate it. DEFINITELY doing this this week.
It smells so good when I dehydrate it! I’ve also made a tincture with the fresh stuff! Put it in my Fire Cider too! Make tea with it, hot or cold…..YUM! Best rizome on the planet….other than turmeric….another great one! ❤❤❤
Very good timing. My friend just gave me a ginger root and I had no idea what to do with it. I will be initiating my new dehydrator today.
I'm going to try making my own dried ginger, and drinking ginger water. I have rheumatoid arthritis, and along with my prescription medication for it, I take turmeric capsules, the strongest I can get. It absolutely helps me!
BTW, I have the Presto dehydrator, one of the digital models that can take up to 12 trays. So far I've only used it for bell peppers.
We buy tumeric in bulk at Winco and make our own capsules. Be sure and mix black pepper in with it to make it work better. That way you can make the strength you want and much cheaper than buying the ready made capsules.
@@carlas.7877 thanks! I'm going to look into this.
Loved the video. I also love ginger, I use all the time. I just started drying food, ginger is on my list. Thanks so much.
Brilliant, We are going to be growing ginger in our allotment. Fingers crossed 🤞 all goes well. Love ginger, thanks for sharing all of the healthy benefits of it. 👍😎 hope your son enjoys it.
Yummy!!! I love ginger. It smells so good. I hope the frost didn’t kill mine.
Ginger is awesome
Perfect timing! Getting ready to do mine toi
Thank you. What a wonderful idea. I love ginger!
Thank you for a great video!! I’m doing it now!!!
YAY!!!
Great idea!!! I just love the sound of food going into a jar!! So satisfying. Any word on Heather???
I was just thinking today I wished I knew how to store ginger. The stores near me sell poor quality ginger at a very high price. But an Asian market 20 miles from me has beautiful ginger at a cheap price. I also have a new air fryer oven that dehydrates and I would like to give it a try. Thanks for great videos
Awesome idea. New thing for me to try!
Great demo!
Guess I'd better get busy looking for a sale on ginger! I dehydrated one hand of it awhile back and it is still sitting in a vac sealed mason jar going unloved. Will you show how you drink yours in another video pretty please? Thank you!
Dehydrated ginger is great in coffee.😊
Thank you for this video. I am currently growing ginger (one of the easiest thing to grow here in sunny Florida, BTW). I need to dehydrate a bunch of this. How has the ginger water been? I have issues with blood sugar and want to control it as naturally as possible. Thank you Leisa! Love your videos.
maybe use a mandolin to slice it? But I am going to do this. Great idea and never though to powder it.
I use my mandolin for so much
@@rhondacausey1480 Me too, I have learned the hard way to keep my fingers out of the way!!
@@chickenstead6586 yep !
Nice video 👍 What I find is skinless ginger does taste a bit better (imo) than with skin on (I'm convinced the shop bought ginger is always done with skin on) - and unsurprisingly is lighter shade too. It's worth trying both ways
This is such good news Leisa! I’ve been battling high blood pressure for about 35 years! So terrific to hear this information. YES!❤️
I need to try this! I hope you'll tell us how you like it left in slices like that.
Husband needs this badly. Saw it in Rare Seeds book just yesterday.
Seeds? It grows from a rhizome. Easiest way, buy some at the grocery store, then plant some small "fingers." Keep in mind it is a tropical plant, so it won't winter over.
@@debrawhited3035 they have a section for live plants such as ginger, blackberry plants and purple sweet potatoes. Sounded interesting and can be found also online. You are right ginger would freeze out here especially this year in Texas. I’ll look at the store.
Love your video do you freeze your ginger to make it easier to cut or is there another reason? How did you freeze your ginger, in a bag or ?
Thank you!
MMMM...I'll bet your kitchen smells amazing!
I'm on this one next week!
My grannie used to put a small piece of ginger in her pot of beans. About the size of an English pea. She said it took all the gas from the beans. She would also chew on a little sliver for indigestion. I have RA pretty bad. I’m going to try it and possibly turmeric for the inflammation. It’s extremely painful. I don’t want to take the methotrexate if I can help it because it destroys your immune system. That scares me. Thank you for this video.
Have you ever tried bromelain? It's an enzyme derived from pineapples. It has worked great for us in combating various inflammatory problems.
@@Emma-3010 no I haven’t but will definitely look it up. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your video. I'm new to dehydrating and ginger is on my list of things to dehydrate. I was wondering how you use this and what you put it in?
It adds a kick to stews, curries, stir-fries, cocktails, and salad dressings-and pickled ginger clears the palate between bites of sushi.
Leisa, have you (or anyone else) used ordered any cattail tubers? If so how was it? I also discovered Jerusalem artichokes last year, anyone dry them?
Does ginger have a bitter taste ? I was just looking at your tee shirt site of your Viva The Ugly Chicken and thought to my self why don’t you show us your shirts. And today you have one on. I saw it threw your reflection in the dehydrater . Of course I love chickens in my kitchen my walls and counters are full of chickens .
Anyway thanks for the great tip on ginger root .
Thank You, Leisa
Stay Safe 😷🐓
A mandolin would have worked great. Thanks for the info on ginger and water.
They just doubled one of my BP meds from 2 to 4 pills. So now I am up to 8 BP pills a day. Guess I should try the ginger.
Have you tried freeze drying ginger and making powder? If so which do you prefer?
So for storage you just put in the jar with no special attention like vacuum sealing? This is great, how long should it last?
I'll end up vacuum sealing it because of the quantity. It will last for as long as it stays dry.
@@SuttonsDaze thank you appreciate it
So would it be ok to use a madolin for slicing i have one i use for pickles. I'm gona try this.
Yes, a mandolin is perfect
If you don’t have a dehydrator how would you do this? Time and temp in oven??
Is this the same as the spice used to make gingerbread?
Yes. The ginger used in gingerbread is dried and ground up. Of course there are other spices in gingerbread that give it the signature taste. I love gingerbread, it’s one of my all time favorites. 🤗
@@sherireuther9678 Thank you! Ginger/gingerbread was the quickest analogy I could think of
I love ginger but it gets bad and I end losing it and money. Today I’ve learn a way to preserve it. But I have a question: Do ginger preserves it nutritional value and all that healthy properties if we dehydrated it?
It starts to reduce the benefits about 6 months after grinding
Suttons Daze
Thank you so much for this valuable information. 😊🌸
Seems the peelings would make ginger powder taste differently than peeled. No change in taste? Thank you for your reply.
None
Lisa can you over dry something and it still be ok?
Dehydrating by definitions is removing all moisture. It's not over dried. :-)
@@SuttonsDaze Thank you Lisa that is real good to know. Have a blessed year.
What does ginger taste like?
Well, ginger has a spicy, warm, and peppery taste, which makes it an excellent ingredient for soups. The pungent aroma and the sharp flavor are also great for teas and stir-fries.
I’ve tried several dehydrators with no luck. What is the name of your dehydrator. .
Mine is pretty old, but this is the updated version. Best dehydrator ever amzn.to/3QPuMfc
Curious what the odor strong? I would love to try this but can't handle strong odors.
When you're dehydrating, yes..... it's a citrus smell almost.
Maybe a good project for in the garage or on the porch if you're sensitive to strong odors though.
@@SuttonsDaze thank you for you help. We love ginger but I was concerned with dehydrating.
😊
Is there any nutrition left after they've been dried out?
Yes
apparently the anti-inflammatory effects are better when dried than raw
Good question...as there may not be any research to prove this point...it may very well be a grey area. The bottom line (and the proven point) is that whatever form Nature produces for us humans, is the best and any other derivatives (rendered through processing) may not be as good.
Are the skins very fibrous ?
Not at all in my opinion
If you didn’t grow it yourself then it’s not organic and if you bought it from the store it’s still not healthy
