The Chinese love ginger when they cook and rightly so. A bit of ginger makes everything taste better. Another favorite use of ginger for the Chinese is to expel the cold and inject warmth in the body. A traditional chinese medicine concept of keeping a certain balance in your body.
Another favorite way to reap the benefits of ginger is to eat Chinese Ginger Candy, or 薑糖. A spicy, hot, and sweet treat that is good for your body. (But don't eat too much if you are a "hot" natured body! It's better for "cool" body types.)
