Nutritional values
Ginger provides numerous pungent substances, including gingerol, for example: it has been proven to relieve discomfort such as abdominal cramps, stimulate blood circulation and get the circulation going.
In summer you can use fresh beans and peas instead of frozen legumes. If you like, you can also replace the walnut kernels with other nuts or seeds, for example hazelnuts or pumpkin seeds.
