Bake #002: Better in Haiku

The recipe looks
Unlike most shortbread I’ve seen
What am I making?

I candied ginger.
I could not find it at store.

Next, chopped up the root,
mixed it with oats and I baked.
What now, should I taste?

Gingery flavor,
but alas, texture of sand.
With frosting better.

Perhaps not the best
Linda Collister I ask,
“Why include this one?”
