Introduction: A Better Way to Peel Ginger
The outside of ginger is paper thin and using a vegetable peeler or a knife removes more precious ginger meat than is necessary. An ordinary kitchen teaspoon will work remarkably well.

Step 2:
You now have a clean piece of ginger, ready to slice, dice or grate.
