Thai Ginger (Greater Galangal)
Alpinia galanga
A larger relative of both turmeric and ginger, Thai ginger – also known as galangal – has a flavor profile all its own. And not to be outdone by its two, more famous cousins, this ingredient also brings an interesting history and long list of health benefits to the table.
Earthy, citrus, and pine notes come through in this unique ingredient.
There is a growing body of evidence touting this spice as a potential antagonist to a wide array of cancers. There is also a long history of its use in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, as well as its beneficial effects on digestion. It may also aid in decreasing some forms of age-related cognitive degeneration due to a compound found in the rhizome called 1-acetoxy chavicol acetate (ACA).
