It's funny, when I went back and read the recipe, I thought, maybe you should let them rise. But I didn't, they probably get a good 10 minute rest, what with the time it takes to shape them all and then brush them. But no, no specific rest.Mercedeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097330009175643958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5262628558438346351.post-20122238178158399682008-04-10T17:04:00.000-05:002008-04-10T17:04:00.000-05:00Am a big fan of your recipes and the stories that ...Am a big fan of your recipes and the stories that come with them.

I love the convenience of the train but not the reliability.<BR/><BR/>Leslie- how ironic, I just had a conversation with a friend of mine today about carob molasses (dibs kharoob). I love the stuff, however, I will counter that it has quite a tart edge, so I wouldn't recommend you use it in this recipe. The roll of the honey in the filling is to sweeten, most recipes for tahinli just use sugar but I prefer honey. Not that it would be bad, mind you, I just think the carob might overwhelm the flavor, and the tahinli are so good as they are, I'd recommend you trying it as written first.<BR/><BR/>The tahini-carob mixture is really good simply spread on pita bread and rolled up as a snack. Definitely give that a try!Mercedeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097330009175643958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5262628558438346351.post-44451850521991525302008-04-06T12:43:00.000-05:002008-04-06T12:43:00.000-05:00These look great...I just bought some carob molass...These look great...I just bought some carob molasses and have no idea what I was planning on doing with it.
