what is almond meal? is it like cornmeal and if so, how necessary is it in this recipe? - 2/22/10

it is actually ground almonds -- you could probably leave it out and just add a bit more flour.

I really have to say I like these! All the ingredients are things I like to consume. I made small ones as appetizers for Christmas brunch. - 1/6/09

I really use this as a jumping off point -- I make them with salmon and dill subbing parm for the feta, or ham and cheddar, or spinach and mushrooms. Really you can put in anything you like.
