1. Ginger is bought home and not washed. If there is too much mud, you can brush off the surface soil with a brush and put it in a ventilated place at home to dry the water on the surface. Prepare a glass or two of white wine, pour it into a watering can, spray it evenly on each piece of ginger, and then dry it in the shade. Remember not to shine directly in the sun. Then wrap the ginger with plastic wrap, wrap it tightly and put it in the shade.
2. Dry the surface moisture of ginger for later use. Take a piece of plastic wrap, put salt on the plastic wrap, put a piece of ginger, wrap the plastic wrap tightly to isolate the air, and then store it in a ventilated place indoors. Cut ginger in half, or put salt on the cut surface of ginger, wrap it with plastic wrap and leave it at room temperature. You can use it directly without cleaning next time.
3. Wash the ginger, dry it in a ventilated place, put it in a basin, soak it in rice vinegar, and then seal the plastic wrap tightly, and then cover it and take it out when using it. The advantage of this preservation is that ginger is fresh and has a long preservation time.
4. Put a handful of tea leaves on a paper towel and wrap them in a tea bag. Wash the ginger to be preserved, dry the surface moisture, put it in a plastic bag, put the tea bag in the bag, squeeze out the air and tie the bag mouth tightly, and store it in a cool and ventilated place.
5, ginger does not need to be washed, put a layer of soil under the flowerpot at home, put a layer of ginger, then put a layer of soil, then put ginger, and finally cover the soil and put it in a place that is dark and ventilated at home. Ginger can be preserved for at least half a year in this way, and friends with flowers and pots at home can use this coup.
