I believe there is a refrigerated version, but I've never used them. In this recipe, you actually heat them in the microwave first, so I just used them from the frozen state. I don't think it would really matter much either way though!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12900263145684208002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099844.post-12269519858408550632007-06-26T21:01:00.000-04:002007-06-26T21:01:00.000-04:00Joe, this looks really delicious!!I have a questio...Joe, this looks really delicious!!<BR/>I have a question though, the soy crumbles you used were the ones that come frozen? Do you add them to the recipe frozen or do you defrost them first?<BR/>I am meaning to try a VT recipe for "meatless meatloaf" that looked delicous and got great reviews in the blogsphere (the recipe intended for meatloaf sandwiches from the last issue I guess - do you know which one I am talking about?). However, the recipe calls for soy crumbles but doesn't mention if is the frozen kind or not. For the recipe I am talking about you need to mix all ingredients together to form a loaf. I bought the crumbles and they are frozen, so I am guessing I should defrost them first... do you have an idea of how I should proceed?<BR/>I wish they mentioned about the frozen product... or can I actually find crumbles that are not frozen to begin with? <BR/>Sorry to bother you with my doubts here!<BR/>And thanks for the review and the help!!<BR/>AnaAnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02059525939843970727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099844.post-77489586546407010732007-06-25T23:31:00.000-04:002007-06-25T23:31:00.000-04:00Where do you find Orecchiette?
