In your recipe for Filhoses de Ab’oboro it calls for orange peel but in the directions it doesn’t state how or what to do with it. Wold it be possible to enlighten me on this matter?
Hi Dawn – great question. The orange peel is simply for garnish. We have updated the recipe to reflect this. Thanks for reaching out!
What’s the equivalent amount of canned pumpkin versus the called for 1 small pumpkin?
i just read that a 3.8 lb pumpkin makes 4-4.5 cups of puree
What weight would a small pumpkin be? Because 4-4.5 cups of pumpkin puree seems like alot for the other ingredients.
