Ginger plant that we often encounter is usually used for mixed drinks or mix other snacks. Perhaps there are many more benefits of ginger plants, depending on creativity and taste of each person.
One of the benefits of ginger are for cooking, I know this from my friend Nepali people, who often cook curry, good curry chicken or fish curry and ginger as a flavoring added flavor and taste.
With ginger mixed, taste delicious cuisine and so increase rancidity of fish will be lost. Understandably I had never cooked, so to cook curry just have to learn first on a friend.
