Crystalized Ginger Substitutes

In a pinch. Recipe calls for crystallized ginger, but you can't find it in your local grocery store? Not a problem. Substitute one teaspoon of ground ginger for every half cup of crystallized ginger. Another option is to look for dried ginger chunks. Simply slice or dice the dried ginger and then toss it in a bowl of granulated sugar. It replicates crystallized ginger perfectly and it actually is a cheaper alternative. Can you tell the difference?

Crumble Crate is the culmination of years of experimenting with cooking and baking in my home kitchen. Since I was a small child, I found a simple pleasure in creating fresh delicious treats and sharing them with my family and friends. As life became more complicated, the basic task of baking in my kitchen became an even more critical and comforting sanctuary.

I want to share this joy of baking with you so that you too can experience the bliss you feel when you create and share fresh baked goodies with your loved ones. My goal is for us to explore baking together and take the stress out of the process so that you can decompress and learn to find refuge in your kitchen. I can’t wait to begin this baking journey with each of you!
