LEMON-GINGER TART



Lemon-Ginger Tart image

Somewhere between a lemon bar and a lemon pie lies this ultra tangy tart. "Tart" makes it sound difficult, but it's easier than you think: The rich filling requires zero cooking, and the crust is a simple shortbread that you just press into place. The already vibrant yellow filling gets an assist from a bit of ground turmeric. It's an ingredient that you won't taste as much as you'll see, but it just so happens to pair perfectly with the freshly grated ginger. It's an extra step, but don't skip straining the filling. It will get rid of any lumps that the whisk couldn't tackle and will prevent those unsightly air bubbles that can rise to the top after baking. The lemon slices, while optional, are not frivolous: They add a bit of texture and welcome bitterness to the tart.

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups/192 grams all-purpose flour
2/3 cup/82 grams confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 cup/170 grams (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup/240 milliliters fresh lemon juice
1 1/4 cup/252 grams granulated sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 large egg
1/4 cup/32 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 lemon, thinly sliced, seeds removed (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Whisk together flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Drizzle in melted butter and, using a spatula, mix until it's well combined (it'll have a sort of Play-Doh texture). Press this into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan (or you can use a 9-inch springform pan, going about an inch up the sides), using a measuring cup to flatten and make sure it's all even.
  • Bake the tart shell until it's a pale golden brown on the edges and baked through on the bottom (it will lose that greasy shine), 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Make the filling and assemble: In a medium bowl, whisk together lemon juice, sugar, egg yolks, egg, flour, ginger, turmeric and salt. Make sure no lumps remain, but be careful not to overmix. Pass the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to make sure no bits of flour or egg are left behind. Add lemon slices, if using, and stir to coat. Set the lemon slices aside.
  • Transfer filling to the crust (depending on the depth of your pan, you may have a few tablespoons left over). Lay reserved lemon slices across the top. Bake until the edges are set and the center no longer jiggles, but does not look dry, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely before slicing.

SALTED LEMON-GINGER SPRITZER



Salted Lemon-Ginger Spritzer image

A little sweet, lightly sour and a touch briny: This spritz is inspired by the salty lemonade found in Vietnam as a way to beat the heat. Without ice and ginger beer, this mix keeps well in the fridge, so consider making a large batch to help get you through the summer. If adding ginger kombucha, bear in mind that, though most brands are not legally considered alcoholic by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, they do contain trace amounts (up to 0.5 percent). If you're strictly abstaining, opt for something like non-alcoholic ginger beer or ginger ale.

Yield 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 lemon, seeds removed, coarsely chopped (skin, peel and all)
Small pinch of kosher salt or fine sea salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger (optional)
Ginger beer or ginger kombucha, to taste
Lemon wedge or slice of fresh ginger, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the lemon and salt in a large wine glass and using the back of a spoon, lightly muddle to break up and release some of the oils and juices. Add lemon juice and ginger (if using) and top with lots of ice and ginger beer. Garnish with lemon wedge or fresh ginger.

LEMON GINGER SALMON



Lemon Ginger Salmon image

Our favourite fish recipe from Johanna Burkard (author of The Comfort Food Cookbook, 300/400 Best Comfort Food Recipes - my favourite cookbooks). I often use steelhead trout instead of the salmon, chives instead of the green onions and bottled ginger instead of the fresh but never omit the lemon juice and zest, or the sesame oil.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

4 salmon fillets
2 green onions
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh gingerroot, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Chop green onions. Reserve green tops for garnish.
  • In a bowl, combine white part of onions, ginger root, garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar and sesame oil.
  • Place salmon fillets in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. Pour marinade over; let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes or in the fridge for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 13-15 minutes or until salmon turns opaque.
  • Garnish with reserved green onions. Sesame seeds also make a nice garnish.
  • Salmon could be grilled or microwaved instead of baking in the oven.

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Ginger-Lime Butter image

Wild Pacific salmon is available in spring and summer, and the flavor is phenomenal. It definitely tastes better than farmed salmon and is always a better choice, sustainably speaking. Though it is expensive, think of it as a seasonal treat. Whether you choose wild king salmon, coho or sockeye, take care not to overcook it.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 1/2 pound) wild salmon fillet, such as king or coho, at room temperature
Salt and pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 pound baby spinach
Lime wedges, for serving
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, green and white parts

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
  • Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
  • As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
  • Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.
