GALANGAL POWDER

Alpinia galanga

Greater Galangal is an intensely fiery, gingery spice borne from the thick rhizome of a ginger relative, Alpinia galanga. This evergreen tropical plant can be harvested year round. The heat from galangal is quite intense, and the aroma is to die for. It is now a well established ingredient to many different Asian cuisines, especially Malaysian, Vietnamese, Thai and Indian, to name a few. Globally esteemed dishes such as Green Curry & Pho, simply aren't the same without a good dose of real Galangal! As its popularity grows to other regions of the world, it is fast being incorporated into other cuisines, such as lemon salmon!
