Expert Tips

If you don't use fresh gingerroot quickly, tightly wrap and freeze it, unpeeled, up to 6 months. To use frozen gingerroot, slice off a piece and return the rest to the freezer.

To toast coconut, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat 6 to 14 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.
