Fresh ginger gives a zesty bite to two familiar vegetables. Not only is fresh ginger a great flavor enhancer for many dishes, it also adds its strong anti-inflammatory powers. It’s been used medicinally for centuries and is helpful to incorporate into your diet as often as possible. It’s a perfect match with fresh garlic to flavor the carrots and broccoli in this recipe.
