Plant
Galangal is a robust, vigorous, tillering, perennial, herbaceous plant that grows about 2 - 3.5 meters tall.  The plant is found growing in forests, scrub or grasslands. It prefers a rich, well-drained soil high in organic matter and grows well in shade or partial shade. It cannot tolerate waterlogged soils or drought. Roots are tuberous and slightly aromatic. Rhizomes are sub terete, creeping, copiously branched, 3-5 cm in diameter, fibrous, hard, shiny pink, greenish, red or pale yellow and aromatic. Pseudo stems are erect formed by the rolled leaf sheaths. For culinary use, the rhizome is typically cut up into small pieces, thin-sliced, pounded into a paste, or dried and powdered for inclusion as a flavoring in a variety of food dishes such as soups and curries.
