Can you Eat ginger leaves

== == Yes! It certainly has a very strong and often bitter/biting flavor, so it's an acquired taste, similar to eating a strong radish.

And it seems to be a pretty darned good idea: Several studies have actually shown that it appears to be anti-bacterial, good for digestion, and good for healing ulcers. Also, it seems to help Cholestoral by reducing absorption, and coughs can be helped by drinking ginger tea made from dried or powdered ginger. Ginger's intense taste releases secretions to help throat congestion.
