It may be omitted from your recipe or replaced with a pinch of ground ginger. Or make your own by slicing fresh ginger one-eighth inch thick and cooking at a slow simmer in sugar syrup.

Ginger will certainly help with reducing motion sickness, I personally prefer to use candied ginger, but I like the taste. The capsules and pills will do fine, and in a pinch flat ginger ale will work too.
Some creative ways to use candied ginger in recipes include adding it to baked goods like cookies or muffins, mixing it into salad dressings for a sweet and spicy kick, or using it as a garnish on dishes like stir-fries or roasted vegetables for a burst of flavor.
When a recipe calls for ginger and you do not have any, you can substitute another spice like mace in place of the ginger. Nutmeg is another spice that you can use. Replacing the ginger may change the taste of your recipe.
My recipe calls for fresh, chopped ginger, Can I use ground ginger & in what proportion. The recipe calls for 2 tsp. fresh chopped ginger?
Avoid doing this. The proportions unbalance a recipe when you substitute ground for freshly grated ginger.
I would just use the same amount because ginger paste is basically really finely miced ginger. Maybe cut down a slight amount if your not a huge fan of ginger.
yes, use about 1/3rd as much though, as it is more potent.
there is no substitution. If you are using it fir its thickening properties, try a roux, cornstarch or arrowroot
It seems like a good idea!
You use substitution when you can solve for one variable in terms of the others. By substituting, you remove one variable from the equation, which can then be solved. Once you solve for one variable, you can use substitution to find the other.
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.
