7-26-2009 Hey Just wanted to say I tested this recipe last night for dinner, with plans to make it for our guests on Saturday night. There was a bit of liquid in the saucepan. took a bit to absorb even after adding additional flour, Next time I will half the liquid, other than that it was great. I can't wait for Saturday! |
