For this, I didn't even bother looking through my recently grown collection of cookbooks - I have purchased several of them over the last year and they proven to be great sources of information and inspiration.
Instead I went straight to my favorite blog. Heidi Swanson's recipes are very clear, easy to follow, perfectly balanced and full of health promoting ingredients. I can honestly say it has changed the way we approach food at home.
Anyway, I looked for her zucchini bread recipe knowing that there would be an interesting twist to it. I was nervous at first, I wasn't sure I had followed the recipe correctly, but I had. It just the amount of batter ended up looking differently that I thought it would. What I loved about it: the addition of curry powder. Seriously, curry powder? It really gave the bread a very distinct warming flavor without being overwhelming. I also loved he green flecks that peak once you slice the loaf, and the addition of crystallized ginger. I only wished I have had poppy seeds at home, it could have only elevated this bread one more notch.
