💡 专业技巧
- ✓For a spicier stew, leave some seeds in the scotch bonnet pepper or add more.
- ✓If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mash some of the cooked pumpkin against the side of the pot.
- ✓Fresh thyme provides the best flavor, but dried thyme can be used as a substitute (use about 1/3 the amount).
