+1. We cook a lot of Asian recipes, so keep those ginger cubes (and frozen peeled garlic cloves) in the freezer. When the cubes run out, I grate more fresh ginger (no need to peel it first!) and refill the cubes for easy portioning.
How do you grate your ginger? It always takes me so long to grate ginger. I use a zester.
I use a microplane of I want it finely grated - comes out almost a paste - or the small holes on a box grater if I want a little more texture. The box grater is much faster, mainly because the holes don't get clogged up.
