  1. I’d probably put them back in the oven just a minute or two after adding the parmesan to let it melt and brown slightly – better flavor!

    1. Great tip Lori! In this recipe grated Parmesan is used which is typically pretty fine and can easily burn and turn bitter if returned to the oven. However, if you were to use a thicker shredded Parmesan it would definitely melt and be very yummy!

    1. Dawn, The key is not to over cook, that’s when they start to release hydrogen sulfide. You might try blanching them first.
