Fried Shallots? I’m in!
If you’ve read some of my blog posts during COVID-19, you’ll know that my family and I have had no shortage of recipes, dishes, and products to try during this time. Often, and this is a good thing, we find so many new hits that it’s hard to keep track of all of them. Today…
Almost there! Almost there…
