“More effort than it’s worth” aahhhh she is just lazy
'effort'? Just use a spoon as a scraper.
Bothers me how lazy you are ????
I also don't peel my gungers
This channel is dead :)????
???? total revelation for me
nothing inherently wrong with not peeling ginger, but would recommend being more diligent in cleaning it then because its a root vegetable
I also never peel ginger when I use it for Cooking ????????
I rarely ever peel ginger, heck I used it yesterday, just cut it in thin slices and cook with my food, no problem whatsoever.
Same!!! I never peel it either
Isn’t there a chemical on the surface of ginger used to stop growth? I thought it was recommended to peel due to the chemical.
I don’t peel anything
Just use a spoon… scraping off the skin with a spoon takes so little effort and barely scrapes any flesh away
Use a spoon and scrape off the outer layer…voilà
Same! No need
Plus the ginger peel contains twice the amount of beneficial polyphenols as the flesh, plus a lot more fiber.
But it’s actually so easy to peel using a spoon!
Someone teach her the back of the spoon trick.
I now have this clip saved to my favorites
If you are preparing food for someone who has a yeast allergy or sensitivity, peel everything.
Peeling ginger, a real PITA. Skip the peeling if you are adding it to something complex like a curry!
Ginger MUST be peeled if the yellow color is a component of whatever it is an ingredient for, otherwise it will imbue a dull brown that is particularly unappetizing.
Also if you are making something like pickled ginger, or ginger beer, where the ginger is the main flavor, then peeling is highly preferred as the skin will add minor off-flavors.
Whatever it is that you're making, make sure you're using fresh, bright colored ginger, it's going to matter a lot more how fresh it is than if it's peeled/unpeeled!
