Scrool down for wedding pictures;)
We are foodies and every Christmas I prepare, bake and cook from scratch all special old fashioned goodies. I will try to share some of those Heritage European yumminess this Winter – starting with Ginger Bread. Stay tuned for more.
You will need:
2 cups of backing flour
100 g of butter
baking powder
5 eggs
200 g of sugar
cup of honey
150 g of walnuts or pecans
ginger bread spices – you can buy ready mix in German or Polish store or mix and ground:
cloves, ginger, muscat, jamaican spice, cinnamon (you will need 4 tea spoons of spices)
3 spoons of caramel (you can use brown sugar instead)
1. combine butter with sugar, caramel, honey and egg yolks
2. beat egg whites with a spoon of sugar
3. combine everything with flour, spices, nuts and baking powder and bake for 1 hour in 180C.
You can finish with chocolate glazing .Cut like a sandwich and fill with plum or any other sour marmalade before glazing. Wrap in aluminum foil and leave for couple of days.
