This is why learning substitutions is one of the greatest things you can do as a cook. Screw your bougie recipe I made it for a quarter the price with one pot.

I recommend procuring a PDF of "The Flavor Bible" great for learning substitutions and what flavors go with what.

Exactly. Llama tears work as a substitute for alpaca in a pinch (just need to add a bit more salt).

Kevlar or due diligence may be needed when approaching llamas.
