Isn’t 3 TABLESPOONS of salt excessive?  Is it supposed to be 3 teaspoons?

Made this recently for a potluck party and got several compliments! People couldn’t believe how full of flavor it was!! This is definitely one of my favorite soups for fall – savory, sweet, rich, and light all at once. Always makes me feel like I’m visiting the tropics!! (:

I would prefer to use coconut milk. How much water would I need then?
