Ginger
Ginger is a spice that is one of the oldest spices in existence - it has been cataloged in manuals of science and
medicine as far back as the 5th century BC. Even the Koran mentions ginger in its pages as the basis of a drink
which is shared amongst those in Paradise. Hindu cultures viewed ginger as a medicinal aid, and Middle Eastern
cultures used ginger in nearly everything. For the Chinese, ginger has a long history, in part because of its
medicinal uses and also because of the spiritual part ginger played in early religious ceremonies. Ginger's major
uses include pickling mixtures, cookies, spice cakes, and meat and poultry dishes.
