Recipe ideas for fresh ginger?

buggles

I'm hankering for something to eat that has lots of strong ginger flavor. Any ideas on what I could put together using a 4-inch piece of fresh ginger that I want to use?

I'd make stir fry! Our local Thai place sautes pieces of chicken with strips of fresh ginger, and mushrooms. It's really comforting.

Or make a Thai-inspired Ginger Chicken soup (don't have a recipe, but I bet google does)

You could also make homemade pickled ginger as a condiment.

When I have left over ginger, I candy it using:

These proportions will work for any amount of ginger.  Equal amounts of ginger root and sugar are the key.
