Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is the name given to a herbaceous plant in the tropics, with an aromatic rhizome rich in essential oils. It is a perennial species that needs a high and constant temperature as well as a permanent humidity to grow properly. The ginger rhizome has an irregular, contorted shape and is gnarled, reaching up to 5-6 centimeters in length.
Ginger is especially prized in oriental cuisines in India, Malaysia, Nepal, Bangladesh, etc. An alternative name for ginger, introduced by the Turks was ‘white pepper’.
