Ginger Garlic Paste
Mason Jar with paste of ginger and garlic. Fresh ginger and unpeeled garlic cloves surround it.
Ginger Garlic Paste is a great way to make cooking dinner a little easier. Equal parts fresh ginger and fresh garlic are pureed in a food processor making a paste that is full of flavor.
How do you store Ginger Garlic Paste?
Ginger Garlic Paste will keep in the refrigerator for up to one week. I like to scoop it into 2 Tablespoon mounds and freeze it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once frozen, the mounds can go into an airtight zip bag or container and you can pull out one at a time to add to recipes.
Where do you use Ginger Garlic Paste?
I like to add it to recipes that already call for fresh ginger and garlic like Vegan Asian Carrot Soup, Instant Pot Mongolian Beef, and Egg Roll in a Bowl. It also goes well in stir fry.
