You can increase the shelf life of homemade ginger garlic paste by adding natural preservatives to the paste. Oil, Vinegar & salt all act as natural preservatives & increases the shelf life of homemade ginger garlic paste. For commercial use, you can add chemical preservatives such as sodium metabisulfite (0.5% w/w), citric acid (0.2% w/w), sodium benzoate (0.015% w/w) and sodium chloride (1.5% w/w), which are generally used to increase the shelf life of ginger paste.
