Lemon ginger tea is highly beneficial for health. It can be taken regularly for the improvement of health and building immunity. It cures fever, improves cognition, regulates blood glucose, preserves physiological functioning and rejuvenates the health of skin and hair. I heeded the comment of another reviewer who wanted more lemon flavor so I added a few drops of lemon oil.
Steps to make Lemon, Ginger & Cardamom Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 170C fan. Butter and line with parchment two 20cm/8inch sandwich tins.
- For the cake: Beat together the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl, ideally with an electric mixer, and light and fluffy and paler in colour. This will take around 10-15 minutes.
- Gradually beat in one egg at a time, beating in each egg for around 1 minute. If the mixture starts to curdle near the end, add a little of the flour. Very gently fold in the flour, baking powder, lemon zest, lemon juice and chopped stem ginger until he cake mixture is smooth.
- Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared sandwich tins, smooth the surface, give a little bash to get rid of any air bubbles and bake for around 20 minutes until golden or a skewer inserted comes out clean. Leave in the tins for 20 minutes and turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the icing, beat together the butter and cream cheese together until fully mixed. Add the icing sugar and beat well until smooth. Add the cardamom, ground ginger and lemon juice and mix well. Taste in case you want to add more lemon juice. If the mixture seems a little runny, add some more icing sugar.
- Place a few dollops of the icing onto one sponge, top with the second sponge layer and then cover the top and sides with the remaining icing using a palette knife for a smooth finish. Top with blueberries and lemon zest if using.
Otherwise I followed the recipe using the dough setting on my bread machine and adding the crystallized ginger early in the first kneading process. A cup of lemon ginger tea can help keep the lymphatic system well hydrated. Lemon water is especially beneficial in stimulating the lymphatic system and this helps eliminate toxins from the colon, lymph glands, and bladder. Ginger makes this process work even efficiently and prevents several chronic illnesses such as cancer. Because of this, they help keep your skin healthy, young, and moisturized.
