I knew it! I knew it! But I admit I didn't know which recipe it connected to so I read them all and learned A LOT thanks! (#3)

It's #3, a plethora! And I have almost all of them. Good day to make it. I've been making Kalyn's wonderful recipe. And, for many more, I bought Crescent Dragonwagon's new book yesterday -- pull out those jars and pots...

#3 Boy, things sure look different when they're posing for a close-up! Yes, I've got some of the red version in my pantry, but I've struggled with this ingredient for years....they seem to always turn out "muddy" tasting to me.
