Can I substitute "maple sugar" for some of the brown sugar to boost the maple flavor in the Maple Walnut bars? If so, how much?
Answered by Elizabeth Mindreau
Hi Joshua - We did not test this recipe using maple sugar, so we cannot guarantee the results. That said, we think that you can use it on a one-to-one basis with the brown sugar. Perhaps give it a try by using 1 cup brown sugar with ¾ cup maple sugar and see how you like it. Adjust as desired for the next time. Be sure to write down your combinations and your comments on the results on the recipe so that you can replicate the version you like best.

I am searching for a very high quality vanilla and would like opinions.
Answered by Elizabeth Mindreau
Hi Donna - Our favorite is a small-batch vanilla extract from Kansas-based Vain Vanilla. Their vanillas are prepared completely by hand using only the best ingredients. Our Milk Street store carries their Original Baker's Blend and Mexican Vanilla in Cane Rum. Both are sold out at the moment, but we will be restocking as soon as the products are available from the producer.

I too cannot see reviews of recipes. Ex: Red Chimichurri. 13 ratings, but no comments; it seems rare for multiple MS users to rate a recipe without comment. The comments are incredibly useful, so please keep them coming!

I’m trying to look up comments on multiple recipes that indicate there are comments, such as Vietnamese chicken salad with sweet lime, garlic dressing, that has 62 comments, but none of them are showing up. I have tried on iOS and on Google Chrome and they do not show up. This seems to have been a problem sporadically the past two months. I rely on these to get good information about a particular recipe and what people have done..

I'm not sure if this is a silly question, but I want to make something for someone who has celiac. Every ingredient needs to be 100% gluten free. Are the vegetarian recipes safe for someone with celiac or can you take any recipe and just replace the ingredients with ones that are gluten free? Thank you.
Answered by Elizabeth Mindreau
Hi Alejandro - Thank you for reaching out. I'm afraid that we are not qualified to offer advice on specific dietary needs. It would be best to consult with your friend or family member with celiac to make sure that the recipe you chose and the ingredients you use are safe for them.

Do I need to scrape ribs out of shiitake mushrooms?
Answered by Elizabeth Mindreau
Hi Jerry - Clean the mushrooms using a minimal amount of water, wiping with a damp paper towel is good. Remove the stems and slice the stops as desired. You do not remove the ribs.
