  Smash Hit!

  I made these as an appetizer for a party & they were gone in seconds! I recommend double or tripling the recipe. Great for... summer.Read more

  Yummy and Impressive

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  These wafers were delicious. I made one batch and me, my husband and 2 year old daughter ate them all. I will be making... these for a surprise party this weekend and will make a day ahead and triple the recipe. I used store brand shredded parmesean cheese and they turned out just fine. They were not too salty at all. I didn't use enough lemon zest, though, so I bought a zester and will do it correctly this time. You must pat them down because if you don't the middle ends up not getting cooked. Read more

  Sorry Giada - I'll stick with your other dishes

  Rated: 2 stars out of 5

  As much as I hate to say anything about Giada, b/c I think she, and her cooking, are terrific, I must say - I was... disappointed...and I will say I did buy the expensive parmigiano-reggiano cheese. I love that cheese on its own - or on pasta - but... this just didn't do it for me, or my husband. Looking forward to trying your next one, Giada!!!Read more

  Rave reviews from guests - Ultra yummy and soooo easy

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I have made these Fricos a number of times for a wide variety of people with the same result - I've fooled everyone into... thinking I can cook! Rave reviews & requests for recipes, what more could you ask for? These have become a frequently requested "signature" dish of mine. Guida, thanks for making me look good! I tend to cook these a minute (+/-) longer than suggested as the slightly browned edges are tastier ane more visually appealing to me. I also put them on paper towel to absorb some of the excess oil (a personal quirk) before plating. They're addictive so make plenty. They even travel well. Read more

  Needs a partner

  Rated: 3 stars out of 5

  Like many other reviewers, I found these to be very salty. I bought the cheese from a very reputable place, so I'm pretty... sure it was of good quality. I'm not very keen on salty foods, though, so it could just be a personal preference. I think these might be great as an accompaniment to something, maybe a tomato salad. On its own, I'm not terribly impressed.Read more
