Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Crumbling the needle-like rosemary leaves will release their pungent flavor and make them less prominent in the dish. Save your fingers by chopping or crushing the leaves on a cutting board or with a mortar and pestle.
  • tip 2
    Dried green split peas can be used for the yellow.
