It belongs to the same group of plants, the Zingiberaceae. Other well-known members of the same group are cardamom and turmeric.\u003cbr\u003eGinger is a perennial plant with a knobbly rhizome that has a characteristic brown skin on the outside. Inside it is pale yellow and, when cut, releases a fresh lemony aroma that appeals to most tastes. Its spicy flavor is due to the oils it contains, mainly gingerol.\u003cbr\u003eIt is propagated by rhizomes from mother plantations and can reach a height of up to 1 meter and 20 centimeters. Ginger needs plenty of water to grow, fertile soil and a warm climate.\u003cbr\u003eThe leaves that develop are pointed, smooth and long, while the flowers grow internally in conical inflorescences. The rhizome has protrusions that resemble a human hand.\u003cbr\u003eIn Asian countries it is intensively cultivated for its use as a spice and for its medicinal properties.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory of Ginger\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe name of ginger, Zingiber, comes from the Sanskrit name of the spice, singabera.\u003cbr\u003eIts use in India and China has been known since antiquity, mainly for its beneficial effect on the digestive system and the spicy flavor it gives to food.
