I plan on peeling on the skin, but after that, can I just eat the ginger?
sure, sometimes we put a very little in our salads, but OMG, to eat it raw and plain would not be my idea of a really yummy treat. I am guessing you don't mean just eat it, but are planning to put a little in something.
Any grocery store sushi has raw ginger on the side.
The ginger served with sushi is young ginger that is pickled in vinegar and sugar. It's not exactly like slicing off a piece of raw ginger and eating it.
I eat about a 1/2-3/4" section of raw ginger every day. I don't mix it in anything...just peel it and pop it into my mouth. Once a week I buy a portion of ginger root and work my way through it during the week.
I like it. Yes, it's pungent, but in a good sort of way. Sometimes I will slice it up and eat each slice, other times I will just put the whole plug into my mouth and suck on it for a bit, and then chew.
