A Ginger Cookie Worth Publishing

by Janessa Stewart, The Ginger People

Sometimes the best recipes are hiding in plain sight—right on the back of a package.

 In her new book Chickens Don't Fly: A Kitchen Table Book, chef and author Faith Wheeler features our Ultimate Chewy Ginger Snaps, shared as an “off-the-bag” recipe.

 After 30 years in the restaurant business, Faith created Chickens Don’t Fly, a beautiful coffee-table cookbook and memoir, featuring more than 100 recipes inspired by her travels and cooking life. While 95% of the recipes are her own originals, she also celebrates something often overlooked: the recipes brands develop to showcase their ingredients.

 As Faith writes: “I always try a recipe from a food box or bag. With a company's desire to showcase their brand in its best possible light, the R&D team aims to please. I've rarely not enjoyed an ‘off the bag’ recipe. Thanks to the kind folks at The Ginger People, I can share this best-in-class one with you. Sorry, Toll House, we might have a new winner.”

 We couldn’t be more honored to see our Ultimate Chewy Ginger Snaps included in such a standout collection.
