   Note: here's a trick I learned from Rachael Ray about fresh ginger.
6. 6
   I love using fresh ginger in recipes but I never seem to have it on hand since it goes rotten in the refrigerator before I can use it.

   So, the next time you're at the store grab a large piece of ginger.
8. 8
   Peel the entire thing and cut it into 1/2 inch pieces.
9. 9
   Put it into a storage bag and keep it in the refrigerator.

    When you need a few teaspoons or so, all you have to do it pull out one of the small pieces and grate the alloted amount with your Microplane or a zester.
