Dreamcake


When you spend 75% of your life in a kitchen, it starts seeping into the other percent, and eventually like anything you spend a lot of time doing, you dream about. I've been trying to kick the Christmas sweet tooth, you know, that gnawing desire for anything sweet that lingers even after the holidays have passed and you know its time to reset your eating habits. A few nights ago, I dreamed about a green tea cake with a potent gingery icing... so I had to make it, because if you've ever dreampt a food before, you know that dreamfood ALWAYS comes out amazing. What else could be better than your subconscious making recipes for you? So I found a skeleton cake recipe, messed with the ingredients a bit, and voila! (Vegan) Green Tea cake with Crystalized Ginger icing. The perfect partner for sushi... mmm...
