For the taste, these definitely are 5 stars. It's just the texture which makes me rate them 4 stars because I found them a bit too "gummy". The spice mixture is really great, though. First I was hesitant about the amount of caraway, but it is perfect. For the Tony Chachere's Seasoning which I can't get in Germany I used home made Creole Seasoning. Thanks for sharing :)<br/>Made for PAC Fall 2012

I have learned to cook from several amazing sources. First, my lovely mother, to whom I owe credit for my ability to cook 'southern' type foods. Next, my awesome step mother who showed me favorites with an Italian twist. And finally, my friend, Dan, who introduced me to veggies I didn't know existed. He taught me many Mediteranian foods and spices that I use daily.
I am lucky to have lots of time to play in the kitchen; it's my excuse for not studying! I'm currently a nursing student, hoping to graduate in the next two years. Along with cooking, I love stamp collecting and reading. Yoga is also a favorite (very calming!)
