Kristy and testkitchenette: I am very sorry, didn’t check for a few hours the blog and made already the Anchovy Fretters and even took pictures. What should I do?

I'll take the anchovy fritters if they are still up for grabs.

Hi testkitchenette! I am very sorry, didn’t check for a few hours the blog and made already the Anchovy Fretters and even took pictures. If you are OK with this and didn’t start making the batter for the Fretters, I can write the review notes. I apologize. Please answer me. Kukla.

No worries...I haven't made them yet! Did you like them?

Yes testkitchenette, I did like them. The fretters are very light and although the batter is porous, they don’t absorb a lot of the frying oil and keep fresh even after a couple of hours. Thank you for answering and being so nice. Happy Holidays!

We've still got two recipes up for grabs: Anchovy Fritters and the Warm Prosciutto Figs Cambozola. Anyone want to claim them?
over 1 year ago Bevi
Kristy - I will be happy to try the Figs if I can find Cambozola. if i can't find the cheese, would the editors accept me concocting a triple creme and gorgonzola mixture? Please advise.
