Christine likes it with more ginger, but Caroline and I found the ginger quantity used sufficient. It will be up to you to adapt to your taste. Ginger root is a fabulous antioxidant. When raw it is a great source of manganese and copper. The ginger root will be best stored in the refrigerator, however not in the fresh vegetables compartment as the humidity level will ease the mildew. Keep it on a regular shelf in your fridge and the ginger will be good for 2 weeks.
