(Cardamom is my favorite spice in the entire universe.)<BR/><BR/>2) I boiled the sauce for way too long, waiting for it to thicken, not realizing that as long as it was hot it would be extremely liquidy. When I finally got tired of boiling and turned off the heat, the sauce cooked into thick goo that had to be re-heated in order to be pourable. So if I cook this again, I'd do a lot less boiling while waiting for the syrup to thicken.<BR/><BR/>3) I suspect that this would be fabulous with maple syrup substituted for some or all of the sugar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35701713.post-13743726859414916602007-11-26T10:51:00.000-05:002007-11-26T10:51:00.000-05:00Yum.
