What it is

Ginger is a flowering plant native to Southeast Asia. The rhizome, or root stalk, is the part most commonly used as a spice. It is typically harvested, cleaned, and then dried or used fresh.

Why it's used

Ginger is primarily used as a flavoring agent in a wide variety of foods and beverages. Its warm, spicy taste adds depth to dishes like sauces, marinades, and baked goods. It is also a common ingredient in ginger ale, teas, and candies.

Health notes

Ginger is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is widely consumed in many cultures and has been studied for various potential health effects, though research is ongoing. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated ginger, but no specific numeric limits were set. Some studies suggest ginger may help with nausea, but evidence is mixed for other purported benefits.

Allergen info

Ginger is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
