I am here for this. Will try this weekend. Can we just once have a recipe where the Food Police stay home and spare us the wacky conspiracy theories.

Why would you ever want to have carrageenan?? It's a know carcinogen and many people have digestive issues with it. They often think they have lactose intolerance only to find later that it's the carrageenan.

I don't know much about it myself, but I always feel better cooking with ingredient lists I recognize (thanks, Michael Pollan!), which is why a lot of boxed stocks give me pause—and why I loved that 1-little-ingredient coconut water is such a great substitute.

Your claim in anecdotal at best, and has actually been scientifically proven to be false.

I never thought about using coconut water when making soup, & now I will. Thanks. I found it hard to read the little pop-up notes during video. Would be nice to see a list of what I missed. I’m guessing it was recipe info, like amounts of ingredients or something. I did catch one about “sad tomatoes”. :)

Hi Reva, you didn't miss too much :) The bubbles in the video are meant to just be little additive tips or commentary, but the full recipe page will have all the details you need to cook the recipe (also linked above at the end of the article): https://food52.com/recipes/78595-yi-jun-loh-s-one-pot-coconut-water-abc-soup

Hi Can I ask where one can buy the measuring glass in the video?

Hi lugubres, our art director is always collecting fun vintage props/kitchen gear like this. I'd keep an eye out in flea markets and antique shops, or you could try searching on Etsy—there are similar ones here: https://www.etsy.com/search?q=glass%20beaker
