One of the world's largest ginger processing plants is near me in Australia.
The site has lots of usage & cooking tips.

I prefer the top quailty crystallised ginger which is just made with sugar &
eaten whole. You can also get ginger dipped in chocolate. Its also used in
jams/jellies & in cakes.

mmmm....I adore candied ginger. I live on the Gold Coast, Qld, and am
thankful the Buderim Ginger shop is not near by -- otherwise I would
have a serious addiction!
I make a beautiful winter dessert of steamed individual pudding with
bunya nuts and ginger. Yum.

Do you mean the dry sort in powdered sugar or the one in thick syrup?

If it is the dry sort it is just a confection, eat it with both hands.

For the syrupy sort I find a fork is best. Stab a chunk then slide into the
mouth, suck off the syrup and then chew slowly..aaaaahhhhhhhhhh.

The syrupy sort is more versatile, it can also be used sliced thinly as a
garnish on desserts or added to baked puddings. Do NOT throw away the syrup
when you have eaten the ginger. It can be eaten over icecream or made into
a ginger ale by adding soda water.

For ginger heaven icecream use BOTH the sliced ginger and the syrup on top
of your favourite vanilla icecream. The Buderim ginger company makes a
sauce that is this mixture pre-prepared and made a little thicker -
incomparable.

I could go on about ginger all day .....

I eat it as candy. And I do not have to be concerned that someone
will take it all.

I've choppped it into very fine pieces and mixed it with homemade
granola; it gives the sweet granola a bit of a bite. I've added it
to banana bread with very good results. I've layered it at the bottom
of blueberry pie - yummy!

I add it pear pies and crisps. Adds a nice zing.
