recipe testing


Recipe testing for a local vegetarian blogger, Michael Natkin of Herbivoracious.

The recipe was Kouftikes De Prasa Sandwiches. I forgot the ingredients for the sandwiches-part, so I had leek patties on a cabbage salad (not in a pita). And it was damn fine. Find the recipe when the cookbook is published!
