As I was at the grocery store, I browsed around to see if I can find these ingredients. The answer is YES! I'm excited. So, what are sun dried tomatoes like? I don't know that I've ever really had them. Maybe once, but I don't remember. Do they have a strong vinegar taste? I'm leery about spending the money on them if we aren't going to like them... :S The pasta look so good though, I want to try it!
No they're not vinegary. They're...I don't know. Kind of sweet and kind of salty. Wait that sounds gross. But it's kinda true. You can really taste the citric acid in them. I don't how to describe them besides "they taste like sundried tomatoes", and that doesn't really help! :) I would say go for it. I think I know your taste pretty well. And I think you'll like them. They are different than anything you've ever eaten. Very decadent. Well, in my opinion.
this looks good, I'll have to try it.
Tangy. That's what they are. Tangy. In a very very good way.
