Notes

*Sorrel is a perennial herb you only plant once but comes back year after year. You might find it at a Farmer's Market too. Substitute spinach for the sorrel when you can't find it or to make this recipe all year long.

**Develop the habit of tasting your food - 'Salt and pepper to taste', the famous last words added to many recipes. The amount of salt in everything from canned tomatoes to chicken stock will affect the taste of your dish as well as the saltiness of ingredients like feta cheese and Parmesan cheese. Taste before you serve and trust your tastebuds.
