Very nice, although I did only add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and it was plenty salty. Delicious on sandwiches.

Also, would you not agree Ina has the BEST music on TV. If the show is a re-run I sometimes work around the house and just listen 'cause the music is so great. Love ya ina. Your recipes are great.
