Community Q&A
- QuestionWhat is coriander powder?
Community AnswerCoriander is the seed for cilantro or Chinese parsley. All parts of the plant are edible, but the fresh leaves and the dried seeds are the parts most traditionally used in cooking. - QuestionIs it OK to omit chicken or beef stock? Should I put 3 cups or 1/2 cup of macaroni?
Community AnswerWhether you add the chicken/beef stock or not doesn't make much of a difference; it is just to bring a little flavor. It's 3 cups, which is almost equal to 57g of macaroni. - QuestionIf we don't have all those ingredients?
Community AnswerThen go get them or make something else.
