Galangal
Galangal is the first cousin of ginger and has a mild, peppery flavour. It is also known as Thai ginger.
Many Thai recipes use thin slices cut across the section of the root to give a heady aroma to broths – they float on the surface decoratively and you have the choice to eat them or merely enjoy the smell.
Galangal is also one of the spices which powers green curry.
