Is there an alternative to ginger?!
I'm making shoyu ramen with the little ingredients I have here at the house!. So I have to make alternations to the recipe!. The problem is that I don't have ginger, since we hardly ever buy it!.
Basically, I just want to know if there's something I can substitute for the fresh ginger!. Is there a powder I should be looking for in the spice rack!? If so, how much should I put in the recipe instead 2 cm of fresh ginger!?
Normally I would just leave it out but I fear that doing so would lose me a lot of flavor in the ramen!. Help please!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I always used powdered ginger in a pinch; but the substitutions for ginger are (Ginger) -- Allspice; Cinnamon; Mace; or Nutmeg and Cardamom!.
They won't be a subtle as ginger would be in the recipe!. Mace would probably be the best substitute!.
If it were a spiced cookie recipe I would say use any of the above!.
hope this helps!. good luck and enjoy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
