Ginger Joy

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is the herb of the year, 2023 as designated by the International Herb Association. This recipe, adapted from Bertha Reppert's booklet Herb Teas for Pleasure, features ginger in both the ground form and crystallized. The combination of the ginger and curry coupled with the sweet ginger creates a very flavorful spread for crackers. Enjoy!

1/2 c. crushed pineapple, well drained
1/4 c. sugar
2 tsp. ground ginger
2 tsp. curry powder
1 tsp. crystallized ginger (optional)

Mix all ingredients together until well blended. Serve as a dip using crackers or celery sticks.
