What Kind of Ginger Is Pao Jiang? Differences Between Dried Ginger and Pao Jiang and Their Effects
Pao jiang is ginger that has been turned black through extremely high heat, and it is mainly used specifically for diarrhea with cold in the abdomen. Dried ginger is made by cutting old ginger into shreds or slices and drying them. Its nature is to hold the center and warm the stomach, which is different from fresh ginger's ability to disperse wind-cold. The saying that morning is suitable for eating ginger refers to fresh ginger (even if only boiled in soup, it still counts as fresh ginger). Fresh ginger disperses wind-cold, and it is just right for dispersing any wind-cold one may have contracted during the night. Ginger can also activate yang qi; first, one works with more vigor, and second, the body's qi also becomes more vigorous and unobstructed. Once the qi is smooth, the disease focus will also disappear imperceptibly. Hence the saying, "Radish when going to bed, ginger when getting out of bed, and you need not trouble the doctor to write a prescription." Getting-out-of-bed ginger means eating ginger in the morning!
