SC - Filo Dough Things

[david friedman]

My husband is Italian and all the relatives, come to think of it...any Italian
that is first or second generation loves lupini (they are beans and don't look a
thing like members of the lupine family like the bluebonnet, etc.).  You don't
usually eat the skin...kind of like spitting out the pit of an olive, but I have
known people to eat the skin even though it is very yucky!  Did not know you
could buy them in a middle eastern store or we would keep them on hand.  We
always have to bring those, dry fava and pizzelles home when we go "up north".
Will make everyone happy to know we can purchase lupini down south too!!
