The door to the potions classroom opens and the professor gestures you inside. "Come in and take your seats. Class will start momentarily. You will only need your textbooks today." Professor Branxton sat down behind his desk and began to polish his glasses while waiting for the class to gather. | |

Sara thought carefuly, she honestly had no idea, but she would take a go at it. "Is ginger used to add lightness into said potion, or is is because of the sweetness?" She was ready to hit herself, that sounded too skipping in the meadow of flowersish- she will never be that pink.

David raised his hand. ''Ginger is asscociated with the element of fire. It can be used to give potions a boost of power, but it can also be a stimulant to produce alertness, and sooth people''

Jen raised her hand once more and answered, "Ginger is most commonly used to produce a calming effect. It can also be used to increase the power of a spell."
There were more uses of ginger, but Jen was unable to recall them.

Julia thinks for a moment, then decides it won't hurt to guess. She raises her hand and says, "Well back in the middle-ages ginger was used in love potions. Ginger is also used to make the Wit-Sharpening Potion..." she slowly puts her hand down, not knowing anything else about ginger.

Claire raised her hand and said, "Professor, Ginger root is used extensively as a spice in many if not most cuisines of the world. Though called a root, it is actually the rhizome of the monocotyldonus perinnial plant Zingiber officinale. The active constituent of fresh ginger is gingerol, a relative of capsicin. When ginger is dried, the gingerol molecules are converted into the much more pungent shogaols. Cooking ginger transforms gingerol into zingeron, which is less pungent and has a spicy-sweet aroma."

Angel's hand was finally obey and writing down notes as quick as was possible. She wasn't sure why ginger was so prized, but she was glad that many other students did. It was even better that a few were even from her house.
