Oh my goodness, these look heavenly 🥰
400° for 45 minutes??? Dude, you burned it!
You are the Massimo Ambrosini of your sausage Tomasini.
As a born and raised Sicilian I can tell you I've never heard of sausage rolls. But they look delicious.
These would freeze well and be a great air fryer meal.
Did you know that there is a guy in Brazil who impersonate your voice?
Chef John, you are the unicorn 🦄 chef that never leaves us bereft.
I AM indeed the RuPaul of making that call! ❤ I'll keep that in my back pocket to use as needed in the future. Likely will save me time making decisions like this with new recipes.
I have a pretty good feel for what'll work or not, but lose my confidence and fear I'll have to sashay away if it fails.
Love this idea! We do something similar, but in a casserole dish
If I want to add onions before hitting the oven, should they be grilled or raw?
Why is “the center” of the oven actually the top third? I don’t get it. It always looks that way no matter the video.
You after all are the Houdini of how to make your Tomasini.
These were delicious for Christmas this year.
Green Onion?! Yecccch!
I made broccoli cheese for mine (vegetarian family members). It was delightful. Had leftovers with eggs – instead of toast.
This same recipe is on the back of the Bisquick Box
I made these last night and they were incredible. I used homemade pizza dough that had cold fermented in the fridge for two weeks, and mozzarella instead of ricotta.
I love the pun
Where is the cayenne pepper?
Abort abort this in an imposter!
Thanks chef
Lost me on Rupaul!!
