Ginger
Ginger is a flowering plant in the family Zingiberaceae, widely known for its aromatic and pungent rhizome, which is used both as a spice and a medicine. Fresh or dried ginger is an essential ingredient in numerous cuisines worldwide, especially in Indian, Southeast Asian, and Middle Eastern cooking. Ginger adds a distinctive flavor with a mix of heat and sweetness, and it is commonly used in curries, marinades, teas, and baked goods.
