Seriously, how good is ginger?
It's delicious fresh in a stir fry or in a tasty dipping sauce/marinade/dressing; it is that "je ne sais quois" in pumpkin pie and other fall desserts; it's highly enjoyable crystallized and covered in chocolate. Canada Dry and Vernor's have based their respective soda empires around it. And of course, holidays aren't complete without a traditional, crunchy, decorated to the nth degree gingerbread house.
Today, I had a ginger molasses cookie. Ok, I had three. (I would have had four if my coworker hadn't gotten to the last one before me).
Let me be specific in description. This cookie isn't like the above-mentioned crunchy gingerbread. Nay. Nor, is it like the traditional "gingerbread" which is more like a cake. Nay. Nay. This deliciousness is a soft, chewy cookie dusted with sugar. It's spicy yet the molasses makes it sweet with an interesting depth of flavour.
Seriously amazing and highly enjoyable.
