I like all of the components of this dish, so i figured the finished product would be right up my alley. unfortunately, this was a huge disappointment. i used less lemon juice than the recipe called for and it still strongly overpowered everything else, combined with the ginger the two seemed, for some strange reason, to make this side dish almost pungent. I really did not care for it at all. i think if the lemon was omitted entirely, the ginger cut in half, and if you were sure to use a sweet riesling or maybe a gewürztraminer maybe it'd be okay.
