does one peel ginger?

[Savij]

Yeah, so I've got a recipe that calls for ginger root, but it doesn't say anything about it but "put in food processor". Do I have to wash/peel the thing before I do?

Thanks in advance

Yes you do. Get a small knive and you basically scrape the skin off...it'll come off quite easy

You can use a spoon too It's a bit easier than using a knife.

YOu do not absolutely need to peel it. Some people don't but I personally usually do.
