These were easy to do; effortless as they take care of themselves happily in the oven. The smell is incredible! I've used them in everything from sandwiches, salads, soups, to SNACK! I pack them in old pickle jard with some olive oil and a couple cloves of garlic...they get BETTER with age. THANKS FOR SHARING.1Reply
