GINGER INTRODUCTION
Ginger (known as ‘Ginger’ in English) is a type of plant used as a spice or for medicinal purposes, primarily distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, from East Asia to Southeast Asia and South Asia. The Zingiber genus, Boehmer, consists of about 45 species in Asia, with Vietnam hosting 11 species. Among them, Zingiber officinale is the most common and widely cultivated, including three varieties: Fingerroot, rhizome ginger, and hybrid ginger. Particularly, the Fingerroot variety carries a more distinctively warm and spicy taste compared to the other two types, often chosen as the optimal source of raw material.
The composition of ginger rhizome includes: Water, starch, cellulose, fats, essential oils (comprising zingiberene, sesquiphellandrene, and beta-bisabolene), and pungent compounds (consisting of gingerols and shogaols, with a significant portion being 6-gingerol).
