Ginger

Zingiber officinale

Sourced from Madagascar, doTERRA Ginger essential oil is derived from the fresh rhizome of the ginger plant – the subterranean stalk of a plant that shoots out the root system. A featured ingredient in many Asian dishes, Ginger has a hot, fragrant flavour when used as a kitchen spice. In Western tradition, Ginger is most often used in sweets like gingerbread and ginger snaps.

Primary Benefits

  • A popular kitchen spice used in many dishes from around the world and known for its warm, earthy aroma.
  • Use as a replacement for dried or fresh ginger in sweets like gingerbread and ginger snaps.

Cooking with Ginger

It takes far less of an essential oil to flavour your food than dry seasonings, spices, or other flavouring agents. Essential oils are very potent compared to dry seasonings, spices, or other flavouring agents, so even the tiniest amount can add a serious blast of flavour to your dish. When using Ginger in cooking, it is best to use the toothpick method – dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the essential oil bottle and stir the toothpick into your ingredients. After you’ve stirred the toothpick around in the dish, do a taste test to see whether you want to add more of the oil or not.

How Does it Work?

   Kenya and Madagascar

Ginger is planted in the spring and harvested in the autumn or winter, when it is mature. The oil is steam distilled from the rhizome. It takes between 1 and 2 pounds of ginger rhizome to make a 15 ml bottle. A rhizome, different from a root, is the subterranean stalk of a plant from which the root system grows.

Our Ginger essential oil is unique. Whereas many companies distill their oil from fully dried rhizomes, we distilled our oil while the rhizomes are fresh, shortly after harvest. This results in a better chemical and aroma profile.
