Ingredients

One 2-ounce piece unpeeled gingerroot

2 cups flour

3/4 cup plus 3 Tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 Tablespoons lemon zest (from 2 lemons)

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup butter, room temperature

2 eggs

1 cup buttermilk

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease the muffin tins. Cut the unpeeled ginger into large chunks. If you have a food processor, process the ginger until it is in tiny pieces, or hand chop into fine pieces (you should have 1/4 cup). It is better to have too much ginger than too little. Put the ginger and 1/4 cup sugar in a small skillet and cook over medium heat until the sugar has melted and the mixture is hot. Don’t walk away from the pan; this cooking takes a couple of minutes. Remove from the stove and let the ginger mixture cool.

Put the lemon zest and 3 Tablespoons sugar in food processor and process until the lemon peel is in small bits. Add to ginger mixture. Stir and set aside.

Put butter in mixing bowl. Beat and add remaining 1/2 cup sugar; beat until smooth. Add eggs and beat well. Add buttermilk and mix until blended. Add remaining dry ingredients and beat until smooth. Mix in ginger-lemon mixture.

Spoon batter into muffin tins so that each cup is 3/4 full. Bake 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.

Makes: 1 dozen.
