Galangal / Thai Ginger European & Asian Herbs They are typically cooked wholeGalangal is also known as Thai ginger or Siamese ginger, but you cannot substitute the commonly used ginger for galangal. Galangal is commonly found in Thai, Indonesian, and Malaysian cooking. The skin of galangal is pinkish, smoother and paler than ginger and its flesh ranges from white to yellow to pink and is much harder. To prepare it for soup or curry, peel off the skin. Its normally not grated like ginger but is instead normally finely sliced.
