It will last for up to three months. Thaw the soup in the refrigerator overnight before reheating. If you prefer, divide the soup into individual portions before storing, making it easy to reheat just the right amount for a single serving. When reheating, stir occasionally to ensure even heating, and if the soup is too thick, add a splash of water or broth to reach your desired consistency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Carrot Ginger Soup Tips\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2021131 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Carrot-Ginger-Soup_TOHD24_158298_LeticiaAlmeida_07-scaled-e1722040880942.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Soup served in a bowl with bread on the side.\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">LETICIA ALMEIDA FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can I use pre-ground ginger instead of fresh ginger?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While fresh ginger provides the best flavor and aroma, you can substitute it with ground ginger.
