Notes

This topping freezes well in a quart size freezer bag. About one link, 1/5 of the finished mixture, is a good quantity as a topping ingredient for a 14" pizza in combination with other toppings. I prefer using a seasoned cast iron pan for this, rather than a non-stick or stainless pan, because you end up with more "brown bits" that enhance the flavor.
