There were a number of news articles extolling its virtues in February and March.<BR/><BR/>Elizabeth: email me and I'll give you some ideas, but you should be able to find some in any major grocery shop.<BR/><BR/>Joy: Yes, I believe you are using a similar type jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05152931556148877553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16665987.post-85772895602473290362008-04-21T19:40:00.000-04:002008-04-21T19:40:00.000-04:00Ha ha I love the word pinhead.

Perfect with cheese. I also use them in parkin and have even used them for a savoury stuffing with plenty of stock, nuts, herbs and fried fruit.

I THOUGHT I found them at the supermarket when I saw "steel cut" oats (I wonder if it was the same trick of the light that made us both think they were rolled oats) that turned out to be steel cut whole oat groats. I made the granola with them anywayElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818302133113874649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16665987.post-80871017357777388272008-04-19T11:17:00.000-04:002008-04-19T11:17:00.000-04:00LOL!

Not looking for anything in particular, just saw it and thought I should find out what it was. Didn't know what pinhead was. Got it home and put it up front so as not to forget it and it sat there until I went to make my grits casserole over the weekend.
