What goes with Tiger Nut?
Tiger nut or chufa is the edible tuber of Cyperus esculentus, not a botanical nut. Whole dried tubers, ground whole-tuber flour and a strained aqueous drink are covered only when the working form is specified; extracted tiger-nut oil is a separate form.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Tiger Nut?
Cocoa brings bitter depth to the sweet tuber, ginger adds dry warmth and lemon zest gives an aromatic top note without much liquid. In pastry, account for the flour’s own texture and hydration rather than replacing wheat by assumption.
