ginger

Makes 2 servings I divided ours up differently than instructions because Craig eats more than I do, so it was like a 60/40 division instead of 50/50. Next time, I would also probably add 1 to 1-/2 tsp, maybe even 2 of finely chopped garlic (not microplaned though). I might even replace the...

Pickled ginger is a necessity when it comes to sushi, but it can also be used any time there’s a need to accent your food. Ingredients 2 ounces ginger root 1/3 cup rice vinegar 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp soy sauce Directions 1. Peel ginger root using a teaspoon to get around all the nooks and...

I used just two duck legs here but to be honest you could use four as there is more than enough sauce produced by the vegetables and fruit. If you use four duck legs then double up on the marinade ingredients. Serve this with new potatoes or mashed potatoes to mop up the sauce. Ingredients...

Treacle tart is a classic British tart - the filling is so sweet that the pastry really needs to be plain. Its delicious served with ice-cream or cream. Here I've added preserved ginger for an extra kick. I used a 9 and half inch shallow flan dish (slightly less than 1 inch depth)...

I only have my photocopy of this recipe but I have made these squares many times and they really do look like this picture. I use a square tin 20 x 20 cm / 8 x 8 inch which makes 16 pieces but you could use a 20 x 30 cm tin / 8 x 12 inch and cut into 15 slices. Ingredients 125g / 4½oz /1cup...

This is probably surprising to some. I've never bought fresh ginger before until today. That obviously means I have never cooked with it before. I picked one up today to go with my planned wonton soup. WOW.....DOUBLE WOW.......As soon as I sliced into it the aroma grabbed a hold of me. Just...

I promised to try out this recipe by Chef James Martin posted by @Elawin for the November spice challenge: Vanilla cured salmon with cucumber ketchup, charred cucumber and pickled ginger. I cured the salmon using table salt not sea salt (mainly because I didn't have enough sea salt). I used soft...

This is super easy to make. You can use left over cooked sweet potato and other than the deep frying, there is no other cooking required for the potato balls I'm not really a fan of sweet potato, but here their sweetness is offset by ginger and chilli and a sharp dip which suits my taste...

I used to call this a light Thai coconut soup because I make it with light coconut milk. I really can't tell the difference. But, putting light first in the name detracts from that fact, so I'm leaving it out. One of the foundations of this recipe is the creation of the stock. If you're pressed...

This is a classic (and my favourite!) gingerbread recipe, taken from a 1973 cookery book called "The Best of Good Housekeeping". I usually make double the amount just before Christmas, slice it up and put it in the freezer. A third will go to my daughter's when I visit at Christmas time. The...
