The quality of what arrived was impressive. Nice and fresh, very plump, and great tasting! I keep dried ginger root on hand to add to my tea...but I like fresh for cooking and to use in my herbal teas when I can. I will be ordering this way from now on because what my husband has brought home from the market doesn't compare to the quality I received. Review: AWESOME GINGER ROOT! - I hope this review gets on desertcart because this is a product worth shouting about. First, I am homebound, I no longer drive and have a disability. My food orders come from Walmart, but with that, you are at the mercy of the person who picks your order, and with ginger root, it has been an awful experience and loss shopping on line. So, I happened on desertcart and I looked up Fresh Ginger Root. I found this one, and spent $10 something a lb. compered to Walmart's $3.56 lb. I ordered this product on February 9th, and it was delivered February 16th. I was concerned about it being a week delivery since this was a fresh item. It was delivered by UPS. The Ginger, 1st image, came in a plastic mail bag, and in side the mail bag the ginger was in a paper bag. I was AMAZED at how this product came in. After washing off excess dirt etc., I peeled it. This was so easy to peel. I saw NO mold, no bruises. My plan for this ginger was to make tea. So in my largest pasta pot, in went the ginger root, brought it to a roaring boil and let it boil simmering for about 20 minutes. Then it was shut off and left on the back burner to cool off keeping the ginger root in the pot. The color of this Ginger is a medium dark golden color, and the taste is out of this world good. It was put into a container then in the fridge but this is not all . The boiled root, normally we throw out, was put into a baggie and put in the freezer, the whole pound of already cooked ginger. I had an idea to put this into a soup. Wanted to see if it would give any flavor. Second image is the soup we made in the crock pot, there are scallions, crushed garlic, whole onions, sweet mini pepper and a Turkey breast Roast. My son took out the pound of frozen ginger root and put it in with the other items in the crock. This was put on high for 4 hours because that is how we make the soup. WELL, the meat was done so my son took it out so he could cut it up, at that time he gave each of us about a tablespoon of the juice and WOWWOW what an exceptional flavor. This ginger root not only made ginger tea, but it still had enough life left to it to be cooked another 4 hours after being frozen. I can not tell you how pleased I am with this purchase. I will be buying from this seller again. If you love ginger root, then I highly recommend this product. What more can I say, I am a happy customer. I see a lot of recipes this item could be used in . Like taking part of the uncooked root and grating it into a cake or muffins. And needless to say how good for you ginger is. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008EDLEVO | | Best Sellers Rank | #113,927 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #108 in Ginger Herbal Supplements | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (758) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | UPC | 840665078934 | | Units | 16.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Om India Plaza - **Item Form:** Whole - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 16.0 Ounce ## Images ![Fresh Ginger Root - 1lb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71g02xbbQ-L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Did anyone try to grow it?** A: It seems to have developed a sprout, but not sure our climate or soil would support its growth. Never tried to grow it. **Q: WHERE WAS THIS GINGER GROWN? IN WHAT COUNTRY?** A: After the recent Consumer Reports article stating that almost all brands of overseas ginger they tested (organic & non organic) all contained concerning levels of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium or arsenic. It's due to the contaminated groundwater which contains the heavy metals which transfer to the ginger root. The supplier of this Ginger is actually an Indian Supermarket in San Gabriel, CA. They are not a farm nor does their Ginger come from US farms, it's sourced overseas, likely China or India. It is 100% not American grown. Prudent folks should stick to US grown ginger provided you can find it. **Q: WHERE WAS THIS GINGER GROWN? IN WHAT COUNTRY?** A: Brasil **Q: Shipped from California, but grown where?** A: el rotten o ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality *by R***A on February 17, 2025* I realize most people can just go to the store and buy ginger root, but I'm not one of them.
