About

Not only do these tangy morsels taste bright, they are bright, a brilliant saffron yellow that will do wonders for a grain bowl in the winter months when the options at the produce counter are limited. I also love to tuck them into sandwiches or add a little bowl of them to an antipasto platter, much as you would serve jardiniere with olives and cheese.
