February's Featured Foodstuff:
Pickled Ginger



While Ginger Root is served and used in many ways, our staff voted that 'Pickled Ginger Slivers' is the best of the lot. Pickled Ginger is also served in thin small slices, but the slivered type is our preferred pick. People often get the two types confused so we have posted the photos you see above to help our viewers make the right choice. Slivered Pickled Ginger goes well with salads, rice dishes, chicken and especially on beef. Fair warning: this stuff commands a fairly high price. Your best bet economically is to purchase it from a Japanese Market.
