How much ground ginger for 2 tablespoons of fresh ginger?

Dry is always more potent, as long as your spices are not old. If you have "fresh" dry ginger, 1 teaspoon would be the right amount to substitute for 2 tablespoons of fresh ginger.

How much fresh ginger equals 2 TBS?

No amount of dried ginger equates to any amount of fresh finger; they have two completely different flavors and they will never behave the same in any recipe. Powdered ginger has a deeper, smokier, spicier flavor we know from gingerbread, gingersnap cookies, etc... Fresh ginger is sharp, bright, slightly lemony and even biting. Don't attempt an exchange, no matter what anyone tells you. It won't work.

Can ground ginger be used in a recipe that calls for minced ginger?

Ground ginger can NOT be substituted for crystallized ginger--that is something quite different. Otherwise, you are fairly safe to use ground, minced, and grated ginger interchangeably unless the ginger is being used for garnish purposes (sushi, for instance). The thing to remember is that ground ginger is exponentially more potent than fresh ginger. Ultimately it comes down to a matter of personal taste, but I rarely use more than a few pinches of the ground stuff.


How much ginger paste equals fresh ginger?
