  5. You guys are legends. I fell in love with your YT channel but your blog is nearly as awesome! (You know, your great personalities is what I am missing here). I mus say, I appreciate A LOT that you’re so inclusive in terms of all the dietary restrictions and the fact you provide a metric versioneach recipe… this got my heart 😀
    Sending you all the love!

    P.S. One thing I’d change in this recipe is adding ginger at the end of the cooking process as for me, it looses it’s freshness when boiled for too long 😀 But that’s just my preference 😀 Other than that, a fab fall dish!

    1. Thanks for the feedback! We are working to update all our recipes with metric versions.
