Provided by Ina Garten

Time 35m

Yield 16 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup unsulfured molasses
1 extra-large egg, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups chopped crystallized ginger (6 ounces)
Granulated sugar, for rolling the cookies

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, and salt and then combine the mixture with your hands. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the brown sugar, oil, and molasses on medium speed for 5 minutes. Turn the mixer to low speed, add the egg, and beat for 1 minute. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula and beat for 1 more minute. With the mixer still on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add the crystallized ginger and mix until combined.
  • Scoop the dough with 2 spoons or a small ice cream scoop. With your hands, roll each cookie into a 1 3/4-inch ball and then flatten them lightly with your fingers. Press both sides of each cookie in granulated sugar and place them on the sheet pans. Bake for exactly 13 minutes. The cookies will be crackled on the top and soft inside. Let the cookies cool on the sheets for 1 to 2 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

LYCHEE GINGER MARTINI



Lychee Ginger Martini image

A fresh and crisp drink. I first made this to serve at an Asian-themed dinner party, and it was great! The original recipe called for crystallized ginger to be placed in the glass, but I felt weird about that so I left it out. I'm not sure what lychee puree is exactly, so I found canned lychees in syrup at my grocery store and blended them for a few minutes. I had to strain it a little through a colander because the lychees didn't blend perfectly so it was a little gross looking, but in the end I came out with a milky liquid that worked well.

Yield Makes 4 to 6 (dessert) servings,

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 pounds of lychees in the shell (or canned lychees)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons diced, candied ginger (from about a one-half ounce chunk of candied ginger)

Steps:

  • Peel the lychees and place them in a medium-sized bowl. Drizzle the lime juice over them, then add the diced ginger and toss until all the ingredients are combined. Serve immediately, garnished with a thick curl of lime zest.

Tips:

  • For the Gingered Lychees, choose ripe lychees with bright red or pink skin and firm flesh. Avoid lychees with brown spots or a dull appearance.
  • Use fresh ginger for the best flavor. Peel and slice the ginger thinly before using.
  • If you don't have rock sugar, you can use granulated sugar instead. However, rock sugar will give the lychees a more authentic flavor.
  • When making the Sesame Cookies, be sure to use high-quality sesame seeds. Toasted sesame seeds will give the cookies a more nutty flavor.
  • If you don't have a cookie press, you can shape the dough into balls and flatten them with a fork.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.

Conclusion:

These Gingered Lychees and Sesame Cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The lychees are sweet and tangy, with a hint of ginger, while the cookies are crispy and flavorful. Serve them together for a delightful dessert or snack.
