- To tell if a sweet potato is cooked, insert the tip of a small knife into the thickest part of the potato, if it slides in with no resistance it’s done cooking.
- Green onion can be substituted for cilantro as a garnish.
- Dry-cured spicy chorizo sausage can be found at the deli counter at the grocery store, usually next to the salami.
