History - The Greeks planted Parsley and rue as borders around herb gardens, from whence comes the old saying: "being at the parsely and rue", meaning to be at the beginning of a project....
We just made this recipe, and it was really delicious, we had only one bunch of scallions, so we used another yellow onion as well, and we added extra 1/2 tablespoon garlic, and it was awesome, we will definitely make it again.
NOTE: I think paste food color works better than liquid food coloring when tinting cookie dough. It's available in specialty markets and some party stores. Be careful: A little goes a long, long way.
