How to Grate or Chop Fresh Ginger - Picture Book Directions

Fresh ginger. A staple of eastern cooking. Fantastically flavorful - I use it almost as much as I use fresh garlic...and almost always with fresh garlic. It’s the thick root of the tropically grown ginger plant with a great reputation for easing stomach discomfort, improving digestion and stimulating blood circulation.

The only problem: how to get it from what you got at the store to what you need (either grated or chopped) to cook. 

No problem.
