Ideally, it is best to use freshly crushed/ground ginger and garlic every time a recipe calls for it. But let’s be honest, in today’s fast paced busy world when we’re all trying to juggle between a million things, convenience and planning is key. Especially when convenience can be achieved without compromising on taste or freshness.
Talking about convenience, there a lot of options when it comes to store bought ginger garlic pastes. Next time you are grocery shopping, I encourage you to read the ingredient list in these pastes. There are always one or more preservatives in store bought pastes that we shouldn’t be consuming. I personally also don’t like the taste or aroma of store bought pastes. They always taste and smell vinegary and pungent, not mellow and flavorful.
How long can ginger garlic paste be stored for?
This paste, when made according to the instructions below will keep well for about 3 months in your refrigerator. If you don’t feel like you will use it up within that time, you can spoon this paste into an ice cube tray or measure out 1 teaspoon portions onto a plate and flash freeze it for a few hours before transferring the frozen portions into a freezer safe bag/box. This will help you pull out only how much you need from the freezer.

My recipe uses oil as the primary liquid in making this paste which helps preserve it for longer and prevents its color from changing.
