Frisian Gingerbread



Please turn your attention to Hollands' North sea coast, Friesland, one of the Netherlands' northern provinces. Alongside world-famous Dutch cheeses like gouda and edam, there is the signature Frisian Gingerbread. This 100% "quick" rye bread, was often times steamed in a water bath rather than cooked in a dry oven. Here is my interpretation of
 Stanley Ginsberg's' formula.

This is not an authentic recipe for Frisian Gingerbread. In actual Frisian Gingerbread they do not put chunks of candied ginger and orange peel into it, and a syrup of molassaes, sugar, and spices is not used, and most people do not use rye flour.
