To dry ginger effectively for long-term storage and use, first wash and peel the ginger. Then slice it thinly and spread the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in an oven set to the lowest temperature possible, around 150F (65C), and leave the ginger to dry for 2-4 hours, checking and flipping the slices occasionally. Once the ginger is dry and brittle, store it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
