Sophie Cooking/Taste Review-
Holy Wedges! These are just amazing. The flour provides the foundation of the crust and holding agent for the flavourings. The only thing I find is that the garlic burns slightly, so garlic salt or dried garlic granules should work fine.

Taste Tester Review-
I was selfish on this recipe because i ate all of them myself and didn't leave any for anyone! They are too good to share (Sophie).
