This got a 2 thumbs up from Mr. Picky eater. He was literally scraping his plate clean. I didn't bother telling him it had anchovies. You would never know unless you were the cook! Not only good for everyday, I would be proud to serve these to special guests! Thank you Coasty! Made for ZWT 6 by an Unruly.Reply
