Gingerbread Spice

Warm, earthy and slightly peppery, with ginger brightness and deep baking-spice aroma.

Gingerbread spice gives warmth but does not supply the sugar, fat or leavening of a gingerbread recipe. In a simple fruit dish, start small and judge the ginger's peppery finish. Lemon or orange can lighten the deeper clove and baking-spice notes.

Gingerbread, gingersnaps, cakes, pies, pastries, coffee, tea, oatmeal, winter squash and baked fruit.

1/2 teaspoon per two medium pears.

Use this amount as a starting point for flavor, then adjust to your food and taste. If other ingredients bring salt, sweetness or heat, account for those before adding more seasoning.

Simmer two chopped pears with a little water and 1/2 teaspoon spice until tender. Taste before sweetening. Spoon over oats or yogurt and finish with orange zest; use a smaller pinch for a more delicate fruit.

Ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, black pepper, allspice.
