This is a nice dish to make when invited to a friends house and asked to bring a dish. Arrive with it at room temp, with the chopped scallion tops and parsley wrapped in a damp paper towel. Reheat at 350 for 20 minutes when their oven is free. It does not need to be served hot, just warm enough so the olive oil is still nicely melded. Add the chopped scallions tops and parsley just before serving.
