Can I use ginger instead of ginger? number
Usually, what we call Alpinia officinarum is the rhizome of Alpinia officinarum, a ginger plant, which is more common in the south. Commonly used as spices, such as five spices, can also be used to prepare marinade.
Ginger contains plant volatile oil, which has the effects of dispelling cold and dampness, stimulating appetite and promoting digestion, promoting qi circulation and relieving pain, and is suitable for people with stomach cold, abdominal pain, anorexia or dyspepsia.
What can be used instead of Alpinia officinarum? It has the magical effect of removing fishy smell and refreshing, especially when cooking white vegetables. Without Alpinia officinarum, the taste will be much worse. However, it is difficult to buy galangal in many parts of our country. In this case, we can actually use salted chicken powder instead.
Salted chicken powder is a powder ground by Alpinia officinarum, and then a proper amount of salt is added. Its main raw material is Alpinia officinarum powder, which has the same function as Alpinia officinarum, even better than Alpinia officinarum. Salted chicken powder is sold in many supermarkets, so you can buy some to try.
