  • Sliced Crystallized Ginger

    Our sliced crystallized ginger has a delicious and sweet, yet sharp flavor.

Directions

Melt 2 Tbsp. of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in apples, 1/2 cup of the water, 2 Tbsp. of the sugar, chai seasoning, and ginger. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with remaining 2 Tbsp. water to make a slurry; add slurry to apple mixture. Cook for 5 to 10 min., stirring occasionally, until apples are tender and sauce starts to thicken. Remove from heat and let cool; it will thicken even more as it cools.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut each puff pastry sheet in half lengthwise then cut each half in thirds to create 6 squares of pastry from each sheet. Spoon 1 heaping Tbsp. of apple mixture onto each square. Using your fingers, brush edges lightly with water then fold one corner of the square to the opposite corner to form a triangle. Use the tines of a fork to press the edges shut. Melt remaining 2 Tbsp. butter and brush over tops of all turnovers. Sprinkle tops with remaining sugar. Bake for 25 to 30 min. until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
