Some of the earliest records of natural remedies in North America are found in the journals and sketchbooks kept by herbalists and botanists of the eighteenth century. These early collectors of indigenous plants often relied upon Native Americans who generously shared their knowledge with the explorers and settlers. In Northeastern America, one of the most common herbs recommended for “female problems” was black cohosh, sometimes referred to as snake root. People dug the plants up in the autumn after the leaves fell, when the root was thickest and therefore considered to be stronger medicine.
No one knows for certain where the plant originated, although many botanists believe it came from India, since that is where most biologically diverse varieties of ginger are found. The part of the plant used for culinary and medicinal purposes is the rhizome, a thickened underground stem, from which roots and shoots appear. Ginger was mentioned in literature as far back as the fourth century BCE, in the Indian epic Mahabharata, as one of the main flavorings used in stewed beef. In the fifth century AD, if you traveled on a merchant ship in the South China Sea or Indian Ocean, you might have seen potted ginger plants with their reed-like leaves and strange blossoms on board being transported to distant lands.
