Baby Ginger
You can use baby ginger as you would mature ginger except you don't need to peel it. Below is some information on storing baby ginger from the grower's website:
Storing Ginger
Baby Ginger has tender bud scales on the rhizomes that are bright pink in color. These scales will turn purple and harden over time. Refrigeration (34-45F) will make make this color change occur faster and cause the ginger to get a bit rubbery, but if storing to use for cooking, pickling, or candying another day, then rubbery is okay.
Freezing:
Rhizomes can be stored in the freezer for use later, but not for pickling or candying. If a recipe calls for fresh grated ginger, take the rhizome out of the freezer, grate what you need, then return the ginger to the freezer.
Some Things to Remember:
When using ginger that has been stored long enough for bud scales to turn purple, be sure to pick off any scales that have hardened before using them for pickling, candying, or in a fresh recipe.
