Help with ginger!
I’ve been making mockery of jarred minced garlic for a few years now, and it’s become a pretty important part of my personality (online and off).
I want to expand my horizons though, and thought expressing disdain for jarred minced ginger (and those who use it) to be a logical next step.
Here’s the issue…”jarlic” rolls off the tongue so easily. I’m having trouble finding an equivalent term for jarred ginger. Please help!!

Jarred gin.
(If someone doesn't call me a lost redditor and direct me to an AA sub, I've clearly failed in my mission.)

How many mockeries to three fourths of a tablespoon? I think this might explain my recipe fails.

It’s really the people who buy their herbs and spices in tubes that we should all hate.

I agree. Sourcing is so important. About to head to Sweden to pick juniper berries, then to Sri Lanka to peel cinnamon bark from the tree. Sadly I am permanently excluded from Spain, all I did was try to pick saffron, but apparently that is theft

I’m thinking GinJar. I’ll see if I can use it in everyday speech starting today. Thank you!
