Yes, you can substitute ground ginger for stem ginger, but keep in mind that the flavor and texture will differ. Ground ginger is more concentrated and has a spicier taste, while stem ginger is sweeter and has a chewy texture. You may want to adjust the quantity, using less ground ginger since it's more potent—generally about one-quarter to one-half of the amount called for in stem ginger. Additionally, consider the recipe's context, as the texture may be important in some dishes.
