Ginger dates back over 3,000 years. It is native to Southern Asia and has long been a staple addition to Asian cuisines. Although it was well-known to the ancient Romans, ginger nearly disappeared in Europe during the Dark Ages, until Marco Polo reintroduced Asian ginger to Europe. Queen Elizabeth I of England is credited with the invention of the gingerbread man. Ginger is also popular in the Caribbean Islands, where it grows wild. Jamaican ginger is prized for its strong flavor, and this island currently provides most of the world's supply, followed by India, Africa, and China.
