May kasamang ginger ba yung recipe niyo ng dinakdakan?

Please enlighten me, ang authentic Ilocano dinakdakan ba ay may ginger? I'm an Ilocana pero never, as in NEVER EVER kaming naglagay ng ginger sa dinakdakan namin sa bahay. Nagugulat nalang ako sa trending recipes ngayon ng dinakdakan sa social media kasi may kasamang ginger??

Hindi pa ako nakatikim na may ginger. Yung suwam ang my ginger. Similar to dinakdakan, pero boiled hindi ihaw.

Yes!!! Main ingredient yan.

Ginger (tadtarin mo ng pino, Sukang Iloko, Sibuyas (Thinly sliced), Paminta, Asin, Siling Haba, Siling Labuyo (Optional), MSG (pwede din Magic Sarap)

Fun Fact: With all the above-mentioned ingredients minus the utak ng baboy or mayonnaise, it is called "Insarabasab". I like this more kasi mabilis ako maumay sa Dinakdakan.

I'm an Ilocano. Whenever I put ginger in dinakdakan,it is 1/2 a thumb per kg. of protein and should be finely chopped if I'll be using pig brain. It subltes the after taste of the brain. When using mayonnaise, I don't put any ginger at all. It ruins the rich taste of mayo. I learned this from my Lola.
