[Sca-cooks] Recipe for period gingerbrede - another one

[K C Francis]

For a cook-off competition in the West for the Wooden Spoon, a recipe was provided without title.  There were five entries and they ranged from my 'gingerbread' to a honey dripping 'candy'.  Here is my version:

I was shocked that there could be so many 'takes' on a simple recipe, but it WAS many years ago.  I learned that one does not store leftovers with the cloves still on top as the flavor transfer was overpowering.  My recipe won and now that I have access to honey from our community garden, it is time to bring it out again for the holidays.
