You've got that right.  The brain meant 'diced' but typed 'grated'.  We 
try all kinds of things, some times we add a curry mixture (the kind 
that comes in a jar) instead of ginger.  You just never do know what 
kind of chicken soup you're going to end up with--especially since we 
don't follow a recipe.
