Okay, adding that to my list. I should have it by next fall, if not

For the first time, I made it as you directed. Have you other ways
that you make it?
I like what someone suggested, about cardamon. That is one of my
favorite spices.

It is a taking a long time to get meltingly tender, but I think that
is because of the altitude here. Everything seems to take a much
longer time to cook.
