Hmmm when I got home & looked at my maters, semi-dried. Tomorrow's 41C should complete the job!

To feel cool, think of those poor Europeans, very low max temps (a - in front of it) and no Russian gas to keep them warm. A continent of icy poles (and greeks, krauts, wogs etc :) ) ahh I feel cool already!

hehehe first time I tried this, dried them OK then filled into jars and added the oil. They remained really crunchy :)

I now know that you first put the dried maters into a colander and pour over a couple litres boiling water!
