Camping alone in the woods while growing up, your imagination could have a tendency to run away from you. Before you blazes a warm, snapping fire, but beyond that light there is darkness… and it’s holding its breath.

The feeling of being alone against the mysteries of the world is what led me to create Ghostwood. This recipe was inspired by-and for-that world, when the remnants of summer have given way to the bracing turn of winter and darkness lurks just over your firelit shoulders, causing you to smile with a hidden warmth.
