Ginger and Its Botany

A Rhizome Full of Flavors

This Indian ginger is harvested by hand. This perennial tropical plant, whose botanical name is Zingiber officinale, comes in the form of a tuber. This rhizome belongs to the same botanical family as cardamom, turmeric, and Kororima from Ethiopia, the Zingiberaceae family. The Indian plant, after 10 months of growth, can reach up to 1 meter in height, but the part used is actually the underground part, the root, also called rhizome. Ginger requires significant heat to develop properly; it is impossible to grow it in your garden in Europe.

Ginger Throughout History

Arab merchants called ginger "zenj," a word that referred to the inhabitants of the East African coast. In the Middle Ages, ginger was considered a magical plant because of its aphrodisiac properties!

In the 18th century, ginger was stored in a container called a "ginger pot"; in China, it was the gift given to brides and grooms as a sign of fertility.

In Europe, the most famous painters such as Cézanne and Van Gogh immortalized these pots by painting them. As you can see, ginger is a spice that has been used forever and is still very present in the kitchens of France and beyond.

Our Indian supplier is an NGO working for farmers. To help them transition to organic farming, 50 farmers from 5 different villages are trained in this type of agriculture. Thanks to this approach, more than 500 farmers have embraced the principles of organic farming!
