Cook's Tip
In recipes calling for soy sauce choose a reduced-sodium or low-sodium version. You will save 145 to 215 milligrams of sodium per tsp.

To prepare fresh ginger use a paring knife to remove the skin. Thinly slice the peeled ginger then cut into matchstick pieces. Chop or mince as directed.
