OK, I want to try this...what does "pounded ingredients" mean? Sorry if I missed the explanation somewhere...Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Tiffiny!
ReplyDeleteThe spice ingredients are pounded together in a mortar and pestle. However, a faster (and a LOT easier) way is to just process all the ingredients in a food processor..:)
