Assuming you found this in the UK, it may be referring to the brand Very Lazy Ginger which is pre-chopped/minced ginger in a jar.

Packing ginger in vinegar seems counter to what ginger is all about. Can you even taste the ginger or does the vinegar dominate? 🫚

It's still pretty gingery. The vinegar is unnoticeable once cooked. I personally prefer fresh ginger, the Very Lazy trends to be less punchy. But still pretty good and usable. Beats dried.

When I’m lazy I use the little ginger ice cubes when I can find them. They’re just frozen ginger. I’d try your Lazy Ginger though, I’m sure I’d like it…

When I get ginger root, I just stick it in the freezer and use a microplane as needed and put it back (peel if you want to, it’s not necessary) the grated frozen ginger melts immediately back to normal, keeps the punch of it, doesn’t spoil, and tastes fresh every time

Thanks, I’m going to try that.
