The Christmas season is a time for delicious indulgence. One of the key ingredients that makes it so, is ginger! But not everyone knows how to use it or recipes to use it in. At Ontario Bakery, we sure love ginger! Whether you want to order custom made goods or dive in to ginger on your own, below are some helpful tips to help you get a little more acquainted with our spicy rooted friend.
Fresh ginger is not as friendly looking as powdered ginger, which comes in a neat little canister along with all of the other dried spices. It goes into baked goods along with dry ingredients and requires no prep time. Fresh ginger, on the other hand, looks a little alien by comparison. The bulbous root is firm and it’s not obvious how to use it – especially in baking – if you’ve never used it before. Fresh ginger has a bright, slightly spicy flavor to it that can really make some baked goods a lot more interesting, so it is worth giving it a shot at least a few times.
Some things to make with ginger:
Ginger Snap Cookies
Ginger Rum Bunt Cake
White Chocolate Dipped Ginger Cookies
Gingerbread Molasses Cake
