We always have an overabundance of J.A.s, and keeping the patch w/in bounds is a problem but I wouldn't consider eliminating them. This is such a delicious use of them! I did juggle the quantities a bit, but only b/c I'm not accustomed to measuring. Salt and additional hot sauce was needed to suit us. And I might add some fresh herbs next time. My DH, upon hearing J.A.s are on the menu, tried to escape. But he got caught (HA!) and actually seems to really like them too. He wants bacon added next time. We'll see!<br/>Bergy, thanks a million! Your recipes are winners.
