Galangal – A typical spice in Vietnamese cuisine

Galangal, also known as Galangal, is a familiar spice in many traditional dishes of Vietnam and other Asian countries. With a spicy, slightly pungent but pleasant aroma, galangal helps remove the fishy smell of meat and fish and creates a unique flavor that is difficult to confuse.

Galangal is often used in dishes such as fake dog meat, hot pot, braised fish, braised meat, and grilled marinades, creating a depth of flavor for Vietnamese cuisine. Thanks to the combination of nutritional value and diverse applications, galangal always holds an important position in the kitchen and in the food processing industry.
