Have you tried "preserving" it by simply peeling and then storing in
the fridge in sherry (or similar fortified plonk)? A local tabloid
cook recommended this technique, so I'm trying it out.

Seems to keep the ginger pretty "fresh" -- and I'm hoping for an
interesting drink down the track. ;-)

Cheers, Phred.

Hey Phred, thanks for the tip. I've got a nice sized piece left over. I'm
gonna try it. Do you know how long it'll keep in the sherry without getting
spoiled or drunk ;)

Y'know, the older you get the shorter the days! Just checked my
sample in the fridge -- it's been there "about 18 months". Yeah,
right... The label actually says 30 June 2002!

Starting to look a trifle cloudy, but it didn't kill me last time I
dug some out to use -- which wasn't that long ago (probably less than
a month anyway 8-). Tasted okay for the purpose then too. But maybe
it *is* time to try the "ginger wine". ;-)

Cheers, Phred.
