Can cilantro be substituted for da parsley as I do not like parsley. And to have to buy the whole bunch when only needing a little, is a waste of money. Or can I use dried parsley? What exactly is corn flour? Is it like masa harina? Can I substitute with something if can not find in bulk food section. I only use organic corn because of GMO’s. One more thing I keep seeing mL in different recipes. Is that milliliters and if so how to convert to ozs, cups.
Mahalo.?
You can use dried herbs, but it will be better with fresh. Here is info on corn flour – http://www.food.com/about/corn-flour-638
You just need a regular sized can of creamed corn, no need to convert (and they do have mL on the cans, too, next to the ounces).
