Ginger processing into dried ginger is a highly profitable venture, especially in recent years when the market demand for dried ginger has been strong and prices have remained favorable. Among different types of ginger, the best quality for drying is fresh ginger, while older or less mature ginger tends to produce lower-quality results. Guizhou ginger, known for its low moisture content and firm texture, is particularly well-suited for making high-quality dried products, with about 20% of its weight being retained after drying.
To prepare fresh ginger for drying, it should be harvested at the right time and washed immediately after picking. Once cleaned, the ginger is cut into pieces—typically three pieces per knife stroke. It's important not to slice it too thin, as this can reduce yield and affect the final quality. If the ginger is to be processed into dried ginger, peeling is necessary. Start by preparing a small water tank, then cut the ginger into suitable pieces and place them in a jar. Add water and rub the ginger by hand until most of the skin comes off. Use a bamboo knife (not an iron one) to scrape off the remaining peel, then rinse the ginger thoroughly and remove excess moisture before placing it in the drying kiln.
The drying process typically takes place in a brick-shaped kiln, with the size depending on the quantity of ginger. A standard kiln can hold around 200–250 kg. Inside the kiln, wooden shelves are placed approximately 25 cm above the ground. The ginger is laid on a mat inside the kiln, covered tightly with a sack, and sulfur is burned to aid in the drying and preservation process. The kiln entrance is sealed with a cloth, and the fire is checked every 3 to 6 hours. For every 50 kg of ginger, about 0.025 kg of sulfur is required. Drying usually lasts 40–50 hours for regular ginger and 50–60 hours for larger blocks, until the ginger turns white. Afterward, the ginger is removed from the mat and exposed to sunlight, turning it 1–2 times daily for 4–5 days. The blocks are then dried for an additional 5–6 days to ensure complete dehydration.
Once fully dried, the ginger is packed into bags of 0.5 kg or 1 kg, sealed with a plastic sealer, and ready for export. This traditional method ensures that the ginger retains its flavor, color, and medicinal properties, making it a valuable product in both domestic and international markets.
