Ginger People Products + Summer Sushi Bowl

Hey there,

unbelievable that tomorrow will be the first on June. It won’t take much longer until I am finally done with my master’s thesis. And then I am considering continuing with a PhD. Unfortunately, my boyfriend and I will be leaving the beautiful city of Bonn to move to Würzburg, Bavaria. At least, it’s supposed to be pretty there as well.

Today I would like to introduce you to a few products from the company “The Ginger People”. As the name already implies, the “Ginger People” produce a variety of ginger products, ranging from sweet snack and syrups, to drinks and hearty sauces. The company, by the way, is already more than 30 years old and ships their products worldwide. Maybe some of you have been lucky to try some of them. After all, those cute little ginger men on the packaging are definitely an eyecatcher.

What I like a lot about the “Ginger People’s” products is the quality of the ingredients – organic, gluten free, kosher certified and suitable for vegans – and, first and foremost, you can taste the quality! The spiciness and freshness of the ginger is incomparable.

I have to admit, I was very skeptical about the sweet products first. I’ve never been a big fan of crystallised ginger – but that has changed. I also really loved the Arujuna ginger bar made out of coconut sugar, tapioca starch, ginger and pectin.

The minced ginger came in handy yesterday when I was making my lemongrass curry and didn’t have fresh ginger on hand. For a long time, I’d been searching for a nice pickled ginger for sushi that doesn’t have a ridiculously long ingredient list. Me search has come to an end. To celebrate, I have a simple summer recipe for you: A summer sushi bowl with tempeh, quinoa, edamame, carrots, avocado and of course the mentioned sushi ginger.
