If your recipe asks for Ginger root, it is the actual root you find in the produce section, that is is asking you to use. in some recipes it is for the flavor, but often ginger has a medicinal characteristic. If you have powder, that is the dried and ground form of the root, and it will not be the same measurement. It also depends on what you are making- if you can substitute the powder for the root.
