memfree, to food in Favorite secrets, tips & tricks in the kitchen?

Use herbs and spices. Use different spices. I get tired of recipes that use the same 4 flavors over and over, so I look for recipes that use something else. Under-used spices I love: cardamon, rue, sumac. Under-used spices that I can only fit in certain recipes: caraway, mace, fennel seeds.

Get spice mixes for pre-balanced flavors, like Herbs de Provence, Garam masala or Harrissa paste (you can make this yourself, but you should try a few versions to figure out what you’re shooting for).

Maybe these are al old hat to you, but here are some standard examples:

  • add tarragon to tuna/chicken salad
  • add cardamon and nutmeg to cooked oatmeal and omit cinnamon
  • sprinkle sumac on your scrambled/deviled eggs
  • put some rue in your stew or pot pies

Please elaborate. I have a vegetarian here and have not found a vegan dashi. The best I can do is use kombu in my ramen/Asian/miso-based soups (but not in Euro-centric soups, like Senate Bean Soup or Cauliflower-Potato). I’ve got a decent vegan Worcestershire sauce, and would love a link for a good vegan dashi base to add to my cooking toolkit.

memfree, to news in Trump’s niece denounces her ‘maniac’ uncle for ‘likely’ leaking Israeli intel to the Russians

There’s no publicly known proof that any of Mary Trump’s accusations are true, but since the war is decidedly World News, the possibility that the attack by Hamas was made viable through a U.S. leak is worth considering.
