The spiciness of ginger pairs well with creamy soups. Ginger in creamy, root vegetable soups are especially great in cold weather, since the ginger adds flavor and warms you up! Make a simple root vegetable soup by doing the following:  First measure out 1 US tbsp (15 mL) of fresh chopped ginger, 1  tsp (4.9 mL) ground coriander, and 1⁄2  tsp (2.5 mL) ground mustard seeds. Then add them and 1⁄2  tsp (2.5 mL)  of curry powder to 2 US tbsp (30 mL) of hot oil in a heavy pot. Add 1 US tbsp (15 mL) fresh minced ginger, 2  c (470 mL) of chopped onions and 4  c (950 mL) of thinly sliced carrots rounds to the pot. Sauté for 3 minutes and then add 5  c (1,200 mL) of chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and let everything simmer for 30 minutes. Let it cool and then blend the soup in batches in a food processor or blender until it’s all smooth. Return it to the soup pot and add broth 1⁄4  c (59 mL) at a time if it’s too thick. Stir-fries are super easy to make at home. Mix together your favorite protein and vegetables, plus a bit of sauce, to a fry pan with a few ounces of oil. Stir over a medium heat until everything is cooked. Grate a bit of ginger into your stir-fry about halfway through to add some spice. Because ginger is spicy, it pairs well with sweets. You can add some ginger to most cookie, cake, and pie recipes to spice them up. Check the recipes to see when you should add the fresh grated ginger. Depending on the type of recipe, you might need to add it with other semi-wet ingredients or with dry ingredients.  Fresh ginger is usually more potent than ground, dry ginger, so keep that in mind when you're looking at the measurements. You might want to reduce the amount of dry ginger by 3/4 or 1/2 when you use fresh instead. The longer you let the ginger mingle with other flavors, the stronger the taste will be. If you’re making a pumpkin pie with ginger, for example, make the pie the day before you want to serve it for a stronger ginger flavor. Add 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of oil and 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of vinegar to a blender. You can choose whichever oil and vinegar flavors you like. Then add a 1 inch (2.5 cm) piece of ginger, chopped fine. You can add salt, pepper, and other spices as you like. Blend everything together until it’s smooth, and you have a ginger dressing!
