How on Earth could you be scared of ...Chef Santos,<br /><br />How on Earth could you be scared of me? Even a teeny weeny bit? After all, haven't I brought you a whole new set of ingredients to bright up your day?<br /><br />As for wattleseeds, you are absolutely spot on and it is recommended that you stick with the commercial varieties of wattleseed (and other wild foods) (www.cherikoff.net/shop) which have been scientifically scrutinised and where there's a company with a public and product liability insurance policy behind your experimentation.<br /><br />The major benefit, though, is that the product I developed in 1984 and which is now commonly known as Wattleseed, is as much art as is roasting coffee. Getting the right stuff means it'll deliver the beautiful coffee-chocolate-hazelnut flavour Wattleseed is getting so famous for. <br /><br />Incidentally, have you tried it in ice cream?

In fact most tucker I've had in the bush has been frozen at one stage in its life.<br /><br />Nice top tip.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05849240671473744463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154048.post-1103693533794493042004-12-22T15:32:00.000+10:002004-12-22T15:32:00.000+10:00hi saffron
