Modern Redaction
Method:
Place the almonds in a bowl and add the ginger. Pour half the verjuice (or appropriate substitute) into this and whisk together. Add a little more verjuice at a time and continue whisking until the mixture comes together into a smooth gravy-like consistency (the volume of verjuice needed will depend on how dry the ground almonds are). You can also make this is a food processor (which may be easier).
