Notes about this recipe

    Caution: botulism risk!! I still make it for the dishes that call for it, but the storage advice is dangerous, and prepping it in the quantities given makes it impossible to finish within a safe window. For botulism safety this CANNOT be stored at room temp. Straight to fridge or freezer. If in the fridge, toss after a week.
