Tell me about that one ingredient, that when discovered, it opened your mind to a whole new world of flavor possibilities!
For me, the first to come to mind is Worcestershire sauce. I’m talking about way back in my youth. It was my first introduction to what we now call umami. When I noticed my mom put it in her meatloaf I began experimenting. At the time I was just blown away by how much it changed things. I even used to put it in my Top Ramen I was so obsessed lol. More recently, dukkah. Trader Joe’s is correct when they say to take bread, dip it in olive oil, and then dukkah. So tasty!!
What about you?
These are easy to make too. I made a ghost pepper red sauce I dehydrated and pulverized to add a spicy salsa flake to any dish.
How did you go about dehydrating it?
Sorry for the delayed response. I spread the “Soup” (for a lack of better word) thinly on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. And place the sheets in the oven on a low heat for about 20 minutes
