  1. ChefJeffe REVIEW:

    These were sooo good! Just when your mouth was realizing how rich (and fattening) the filling is, you'd get the crunch of fresh onions or a bite of chilled tomato. Very filling, as well. Definitely use sourdough bread, as is called for. For this recipe, it makes a difference.
