Guest guest Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I would add them afterwards as they are already cooked. I think they might break up too much if you cooked them again.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Thanks, Jo. I’m such a beginner still….. Judy I would add them afterwards as they are already cooked. I think they might break up too much if you cooked them again. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
