What's your secret ingredient that makes your version of a common dish better than anyone else's?
Mine probably isn't that secret these days, but almost every sauce I add nutritional yeast to. Curry, chilli, bolognese, it just makes them all better.
or fish sauce ... which is where MSG was originally derived from when MSG was isolated scientifically
never thought fish sauce did much before ... but after using it a bunch of times ... all a 2 liter pot of soup, stew, sauce needs is a few drops and it makes a world of difference.
