Notes
Make-Ahead: These are meant to be eaten within an hour of making them.How to Store: Cover and place in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. These do not freeze that well, so I advise against them.How to Reheat: Place them in a pan or on a metal tray and bake in the oven at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes or until warmed and crispy. Other herbs that would work well are fresh or dry rosemary, thyme, chervil, or sage.
