Anti-inflammatory and an aid to digestion. In the 14th century, ginger was the most widely used spice after pepper. Preserved ginger was a popular sweet in the Middle Ages. It is still used in baking in Britain and Scandinavia. The rhizome of the ginger plant, dried and ground, is used to prepare this spice with its camphorated, lemony flavor.

Albert Menes rediscovers the gourmet pleasures of his Breton childhood, having set sail in the navy in the early 1900s.

In 1921, he founds the company Albert Menes. Importing rare, specialty groceries from all over the world, he delights the palates of enlightened amateurs. The company has made it its mission to bring a touch of the special to everyday life, offering exceptional, artisanal spices, regional and global specialties, traditional and unique recipes, and jams, and all this in compliance with the know-how and secrets of the trade.
