5. Preserve Ginger in Oil or Vinegar
Another effective method is storing peeled ginger submerged in oil or vinegar in a sealed jar in the refrigerator. This keeps ginger moist and flavorful, while also adding a subtle infused taste—perfect for cooking.
6. Keep Ginger at Room Temperature (Short Term)
If you plan to use ginger within a few days, you can store it at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Wrap it loosely in a paper towel to avoid moisture buildup.
7. Check Regularly and Remove Spoiled Pieces
Inspect ginger every few days. If you notice soft spots, mold, or a strong unpleasant smell, remove the affected portion immediately to prevent it from spreading.
