sounds delish


This recipe comes to you courtesy of the edible gardens website. As I've mentioned before, edible gardens makes delicious oils and vinegars, available in store. Sometimes you get stuck in a rut with oils and vinegars, and use them only for salad dressings or dipping bread. So, behold, a tasty recipe to try... perhaps we can even motivate Heather to put it on the Gingersnaps menu next week... Mmmm
