Economic Value Of Ginger

Ginger is an economic crop with great development and utilization value. In addition to containing gingerone, gingerol and other physiologically active substances, it also contains protein, polysaccharides, vitamins and a variety of trace elements. It integrates nutrition, flavoring, and health care. It is regarded by medical scientists as a health product with the same medicine and food, which has various health care functions such as dispelling cold, dispelling dampness, warming the stomach, and accelerating blood circulation. Ginger products are becoming more and more popular in the international market, especially in Southeast Asia, Japan and other countries and regions, which can generate a large amount of foreign exchange for the country every year.

In China, ginger has a long history of edible and medicinal use, and the development and utilization of ginger is relatively early. The main products are ginger slices, sweet ginger, ginger sauce, ginger juice, etc. The product grades are low and sales are limited. In order to make full and reasonable use of precious fresh ginger resources, through development and utilization, not only make every part of it fully utilized, but also obtain high value-added products and obtain higher value-added effects. At the same time, the following four products are extracted from ginger: concentrated ginger milk, transparent raw ginger juice health drink, ginger starch, and finally the residue is comprehensively used to make ginger hot sauce. The first two of the above four products are high-end, high value-added products.

⒈Seasoned ginger milk

Flavored ginger milk is made by extracting the flavoring essence in ginger, and the appearance is like egg-yellow cream, which is creamy. It is very convenient to use, has a strong flavoring effect, and can be used in high-end restaurants. As a condiment, put a little bit in the seasoning soup, which is especially suitable for dipping in a seafood feast.

⒉Ginger Juice Health Drink

The beverage does not contain any chemical compounds, and its flavor has a hint of burnt aroma. It is very comfortable after being eaten. It is especially suitable for drinking in high-temperature areas and field workers. It has a wide market in the north. In the southern spring, summer, and autumn, there are constant rain and rain, and the human body is too damp and easy to get sick. Although drinking this type of beverage is not necessary to fight the cold, it has the effect of dehumidification. In medicine, "eat radish in winter and eat ginger in summer" is the truth. In particular, it is worth mentioning that many Chinese medicine experts believe that drinking the drink can relieve muscles and blood, promote blood circulation, fully open the pores, and quickly relieve fatigue. Drinking after drinking has a sense of relaxation and can keep the mind clear. The ginger juice drink can be used as a special drink for car drivers. Therefore, the future prospects of ginger juice beverages will be extremely broad. There have been ginger drinks on the market before, which are mainly synthetic drinks with ginger flavor blended with ginger essence. The real transparent ginger drinks without chemical compounds are still blank in the market.

⒊Ginger starch and ginger hot sauce

The product obtained from the comprehensive utilization of ginger starch and ginger hot sauce as by-products is not a high-value-added product, but is only developed to reduce costs and eliminate the pollution of the three wastes. If conditions permit, the internationally popular plant edible fiber can be developed, and its prospects are even better.
