My Utensil Crock is on a brief cooking hiatus. I will be posting some of my greatest hits during this time. I chose this recipe because I have a batch on my counter right now, and have been indulging quite a bit over the past few weeks, remembering Ga the whole time. I also brought in a batch to work, keeping the edges for myself and a few ... view more
