Cooking substitute for fresh ginger
What should I use the dried powder ginger or some crystalized?
Its for a soup if that matters

2. Halibut. Or a blue slurpee.

Seriously, though, for a soup I'd go with the powder form.

4. Powder
The crystallized will be too sweet.

6. I agree with powder
or you might be able to find small jars of ginger paste that work very well.

But why substitute? Fresh ginger is so good and so cheap and it really isn't that hard to work with.

7. Because I was in the process of cooking and needed it ASAP
Didn't want to make a trip to the store just for ginger.

8. Powder then.
But do try cooking with some fresh. You'll love the results.
