These are helpful tips—thanks! Also, for those near a Trader Joe’s, frozen grated ginger is sold in packaged little cubes, always at the ready. Of course, it works to grate your own and freeze in ice cube trays, too.

Hi Lisa! Mushrooms can be tricky. Make sure they stay dry. You can place them unwashed in a brown paper bag in the main section of your refrigerator. This has worked well for me, but they still don’t have a great shelf life. Hope this helps!

Hi Heather! Ginger does best in the vegetable drawer. I haven’t been able to tell a big difference between ginger stored in a bag vs. not. If you’re out of room in the vegetable drawer, I’d definitely store it in a bag to help prevent dehydration. I always keep my baking powder/soda in a drawer at room temp. They typically don’t expire for a couple of years, and I always use them up in that time. I like buying them in the cylindrical containers with a tight-fitting lid (or I transfer to those jars, if I buy it in a different container). Mason jars or any other small, airtight container would work well! Hope this helps.
