When will I quit trying to pretend to be fastidious? Yes, I leave the gunk on the seeds too; you can see in the photo.

Of course, the reason I know this is because once I was too lazy to clean them.mary grimmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04294368835776483342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-1161790553845677472006-10-25T08:35:00.000-07:002006-10-25T08:35:00.000-07:00You got that right -- baking is not in my blood.

Good move. I remember the choking-dryness of unboiled seeds and can see that the tenderizing will be a superior method.
