Galangal [Per Kg]

About the product

Galangal is a bold, aromatic rhizome closely related to ginger, with a pale, knobby exterior and a firm, dense flesh. Its flavour is sharper and more citrus-forward than ginger, with a distinct peppery warmth that forms the backbone of many Southeast Asian dishes. Sold by the kilogram, it's a versatile fresh ingredient for home cooks who love cooking from scratch.

In the Kitchen

- Adds a distinctive citrusy, peppery depth to broths, curries, and spice pastes that ginger alone cannot replicate
- Firm texture holds up well during long, slow cooking - ideal for simmered soups and braised dishes
- A staple in Thai, Indonesian, and Malaysian cooking, making it easy to recreate authentic flavours at home
- Sold by the kilogram so you can buy exactly the quantity your recipe calls for

Ways to Cook It

- Slice or bruise and add to coconut-based soups such as tom kha for a fragrant, warming broth
- Blend into curry pastes alongside lemongrass, chillies, and shallots for a deeply aromatic base
- Steep sliced galangal in stocks or broths and remove before serving, much like a bay leaf
- Grate finely into marinades for meat or seafood to introduce a subtle, spiced warmth
- Use in spice rubs or dry blends when ground - peel, slice thinly, and dry before grinding
